HTTP 100 Continue vs 303 See Other
HTTP 100 (Continue) is a 1xx Informational response, while 303 (See Other) is a 3xx Redirection response. 100 indicates that the server has received the request headers and the client should proceed to send the request body. This lets the client know it can continue with the request or abort if the headers were rejected. In contrast, 303 means that the server is redirecting to a different resource using GET, typically after a POST operation (Post/Redirect/Get pattern).
