hi monks,

i am getting below message in my web pages, which use CGI::Ajax module

No head/html tags, nowhere to insert. Returning javascript anyway

Here is skeleton of my code: 

my $pjx = new CGI::Ajax( 'exported_func' => \&perl_func);
print $pjx->build_html($cgi, \&Show_Html);

sub perl_func
{
# ajax function
}

sub Show_Html
{
# html generating code
    # first check session info
    print $session->header();
    # generate html 
print $cgi->start_html();
# remaining html code
print $cgi->end_html();
}

Now this generates, html properly and even calls Ajax function, but displays above warning message in browser, all the time.

I went through CGI::Ajax documentation, and below are the lines, which I doubt are related to problem. Arguments: The CGI object, and either a coderef, or a string containing html. Optionally, you can send in a third parameter containing information that will get passed directly to the CGI object header() call.

or is it mandatory to write Show_Html as follows only

sub Show_HTML {
    my $html = <<EOT;
  <HTML>
# html generating code
  </HTML>
EOT
    return $html;
  }

While doing debugging with Firefox, I found out that actual response body was as follows

# html generated by Show_Html
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-U
+S">
<head>
<title></title>
</html>

# and again html generated by cgi::ajax
<html>
</html>
