scenario:
PERL generates HTML content (array of images)
AJAX from a .js script is to download them one at a time

issue:
AJAX does not work from client browser when web page is rezult of a PERL “print (@template);” command.
If the source of above genrated page is copied to an .html file and downloaded from same web site, AJAX does its job.

I programe most of the time with Perl, but when I go for Ajax, I prefer Php Ajax, it is more flexible.

Perl and AJAX that’s a good combination :)

It’s not exactly totally up-to-date (or written in ruby ;-), but it’s simply a good way of enhancing stuff that might well be lying around already. It’s a good way of bringing old systems up to date without too much trouble.

There’s a lot of people out there who know a little bit of CGI, and this is a relatively simple way of getting them introduced to Ajax.

I love Perl, but Ajax from a CGI script and the example uses a flat file? Yikes! Is this Ajax circa 1995?
