Description
Roger Villars opened DATAREST-1242 and commented
When trying to call a NON-GET request for an not yet associated link (e.g. a reference to another entity) no editor will be opened, and a 404 will be logged to the browser console.
The reason is that both the HEAD call and the GET call in CustomPostForm.js will fail but the try/catch (that would load the fallback editor) is not working because $.ajax() does not throw any errors. An appropriate error callback function needs to be provided instead.
This breaks the possibility to set an uri-list for this link with the HAL browser
Affects: 3.0.6 (Kay SR6)
