If the following call is made:
<script>
|varformData
={"data1":a,"data2":b,"data3":c};$.ajax({dataType:"json",contentType
:"application/json; charset=UTF-8",url:'/folder1/doSomething1.epl',data
:formData,success:function(response){CurrentArray=response;}}); </script> ||doSomething1.epl| doesn't receive the JSON data as %fdat. %fdat is empty.

I agree with all of the responses that Embed perl was made to mainly use
CGI.pm and multipart/form-data and really shouldn't be used outside of that.
BUT As long as there is possibility that it might be able to receive
application/json data I have to look for a way to do it. It's part of
my job to look for solutions that work within current limitations.
If every response to this email is "It's not possible" that is something
I can take to a meeting. If the responses are "You shouldn't or it's
difficult" then I have to keep searching for a solution that is
understandable and workable.
I'm willing to pay a small consulting fee or a donation to a charity,
for assistance in figuring this out.
So what are the suggestions for handling a call like this on a script by
script basis. I might be possible to limit the scripts accepting these
calls to specific directories.

:formData,success:function(response){CurrentArray=response;}}); Thank

I wouldn't use embperl to accept json. I see embperl as being
designed for HTML output, so I don't really see how it helps when
dealing with json.

Good to know that there are still some Embperl users out there.
We have a large SAAS system mainly in Embperl, so our usage of
Embperl is not going away anytime soon.
My current question to the Embperl community is:
*How to accept **application/json?*
**I know that "Embperl uses CGI.pm internally to process forms
encoded with multipart/form-data" and that get processed into %fdat.
Is there a way to disable this behavior dynamically per page to
accept application/json data.

Your not understanding or I'm not understanding. JSOM is a CLIENT
technology and EMBPERL is a server technology. It can process ANY input
and it doesn't give a darn about application/json.
all the form data is in %fdat, whether you like it or not, and it is
done on the server side. If you don't want to use something from the
hash, don't use it. %fdat in of itself does not produce any html
