thank you.I was able to resolve. It was the header data type issue. The AJAX call was expecting JSON output, and the script was sending text/html. I have now resolved this issue. I will update the question on website soon. thank you. Rajeev

Please go over http://perl-begin.org/tutorials/bad-elements/ , read it and internalise it. Furthermore, the E-mail headers of your message are obnoxious with a From: of the list and a reply-to to your personal Yahoo account. That may be a Yahoo mishap so please consider avoiding using Yahoo when posting to mailing lists.
