Are you referring to comparing what firebug shows or the rendered pages?

I probably should have explained that the php app is not a duplication of this perl app. The javascript is a direct copy of what I'm using in the php app with the only difference being the url assignment. On the php side, firebug is showing the same type of successful results i.e., status 200, content-type and length are what's expected and the Response and HTML sections are showing the correct/expected results.

The only difference I see is in the final rendered page where the document.getElementById('folder').innerHTML = xmlHttpObj.responseText; is being executed in the php app, but not in the perl app. I'm not seeing any errors or anything else in firebug that would account for this, but I have to admit that I don't full understand some of the info it's providing.

My knowledge of javascript and ajax/jquery is very limited which makes troubleshooting that portion of the app frustrating.
