CGI::Ajax checks to see if a header() method is available to the CGI object, and then uses it.If method() isn't available, it creates it's own minimal header. -----><8----- which tells me CGI::Ajax is automatically calling CGI's header method. If that's the case, you could create your own sub-class of CGI and give it a header method which returns an empty string. Note specifically I don't recommend doing this, I'm just pointing out another approach. Or, as we say, TMTOWTDI. I feel you should not have to jump thru hoops like that just to achieve a simple goal. So, what to do? Well, you've been given various suggestions to try, and yet that might be a bit confusing - which to try? I've just read some of the JQuery docs, and I'd say it's a clever package, but with an unusual syntax. And since you've not comfortable with Javascript yet, I don't see the point /for a beginner in this field/ to try producing production-quality code while learning Javascript and JQuery at the same time. Play with these packages by all means, but is that what you're doing right now? So, I'd say cut the complexity out altogether. Make the input validation work via form submit. Yes I know that's a but crude compared to what an expert would do, but you're not at that stage yet. Get the code working, simply and cleanly, and then add the sophisticated mechanism (Ajax perhaps) which makes the user interface nicer and neater to use. -- Cheers Ron Savage, [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 22/10/2006 http://savage.net.au/index.html Let the record show: Microsoft is not an Australian company --------------------------------------------------------------------- Web Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cgiapp&r=1&w=2 To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
