in thread How do I mix up Perl and jQuery (for beginners)

It sounds like you need to spend time reading up on jQuery and AJAX. Your description reads like your boss wants you to use jQuery and AJAX to query a database, via server side Perl. Perhaps he saw your "some thousand lines of code" and doesn't think it's going to be maintainable. jQuery does a lot of heavy lifting for you, it's a widely used framework. If you were concerned by this requirement I suspect you'd have asked your boss about this already. Using Perl, jQuery, and JSON for Web development should be of interest.

Update: added a few words to second sentance.
