Re: cgi and update event

I hacked something together that does what I want, but I'm sure theres a more elegant solution. Please let me know.

#!C:/Perl/bin/perl.exe

use strict;
use warnings;

use CGI;
use CGI::Ajax;

my $cgi = new CGI;

my $pjx = new CGI::Ajax( 'update' => \&update_options,
                         'update2' => \&update_options2);

my @item1 = qw(1 2 3 4 5);
my @item2 = qw(1 2 3 4 5);
 
my $html = '<HTML>
<HEAD><title>CGI::Ajax Example</title>
</HEAD>
<BODY>';

$html .= '<div id="data1"><SELECT name=\"TEST\" id="val1" onchange="up
+date( [\'val1\',\'NO_CACHE\'], [\'data2\'] );">\n';
$html .= populate_list_box(@item1);
$html .= "</SELECT><BR></div>\n";

$html .= '<div id="resultdiv"></div><hr>';

$html .= '<div id="data2"><SELECT name=\"TEST\" id="val2" onchange="up
+date2( [\'val2\',\'NO_CACHE\'], [\'resultdiv2\'] );">\n';
$html .= populate_list_box(@item2);
$html .= "</SELECT><BR></div>\n";

$html .= '<div id="resultdiv2"></div>';

$html .= '
</BODY>
</HTML>';

print $pjx->build_html($cgi,$html);

sub populate_list_box {

    my @array = @_;

    my $htmlCode = "";

    foreach (@array) {
    my $selected = "";
    $htmlCode .= "<option value=\"$_\" $selected>$_</option>\n";
    }
    return $htmlCode;
}

sub update_options {

    my $input = shift;

    my @item2 = qw(11 12 13 14 15);
    my $html = '<SELECT name=\"TEST\" id="val2" onchange="update2( [\'
+val2\',\'NO_CACHE\'], [\'resultdiv2\'] );">\n';
    $html .= populate_list_box(@item2);
    $html .= "</SELECT><BR>\n";

    return $html;
}

sub update_options2 {
    my $input = shift;

    return $input;
}
