my $cgi = new CGI; my $pjx = new CGI::Ajax( 'exported_func' => \&perl_func ); print $pjx->build_html( $cgi, \&Show_HTML); sub perl_func { # returns output from database } sub Show_HTML # prints HTML page. { # i want to set ajax function calls on this list items # so when user click on news, news content from another html page # would get displayed in content div # same would happen for home find events list items <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>Find</li> <li>News</li> <li>Events</li> <li>Register</li> </ul> <hr> <div id="navigation"> <input id="q" type="text" size="15" name="query" value="" /> </br> <input type="submit" value="Find" onclick="exported_func( ['q'], ['con +tent'] );"> </div> div id="content">First display events. </div> #rest of HTML code return $html; }

This is current code of my demo page. Now what I want is if user clicks on any list items, it would generate an ajax call which would display new html data from another HTML page in div 'content '.

So I thought I could just write:

my $sec_pjx = new CGI::Ajax( 'exported_func' => \&sec_perl_func ); print $sec_pjx->build_html( $cgi, \&Show_HTML);

and in HTML:

<li id="sec_q" onclick="exported_func( ['sec_q'], ['content'] );">Register</a></li>

but this produces HTML content twice. One Ajax call is already handling perl_func. So what is correct method to achieve this.
