I have two questions about CGI::Ajax.

The documentation for CGI::Ajax gives an example of setting up a single event in a HTML page. Yet, how can I set up several? Setting up the module's instance as: 

my $pjx = new CGI::Ajax('func_a' => \&func_a, 'func_b' => \&func_b );

doesn't appear to work. What I am wanting to do is dynamically fill the contents of a SELECT dropdown (requiring a database call...) depending upon the choice made is a different SELECT dropdown.

For my second question, what I have seen thus far is that text sent from the server back to the client is done in cleartext -- structuring objects in JSON format has not been required. Is this as intended?

Thanks for any insight shared.
