I've just checked it, and the code on pragmaticprogrammer.com (you made a
typo, probably) returns a 200 OK, and the program works as expected. It
could be the typo, but programmaticprogrammer does not exist for me, and
you're getting a 302 (it's a redirect to another page) so I don't know
what's happening exactly. Take a look on HTTP response codes if the problem
wasn't the URL.

Regards.

Diego.
