Hi, Apu: I'd recommend you trying jQuery which glues Javascript(AJAX,JSON for sure) very well with CSS, and is as flexible as Perl. And more, it makes cross-browser programming in client-side really easy, probably too easy :- )
http://jquery.com/ (not sure about the speed penalty though..) BTW. I won't use AJAX for final user authentication which, I think, better go with SSL layer. you can add AJAX validation(or auto-suggestion) code with the form inputs to improve user experience [probably not very useful in this scenario] though, my 2 cents Xicheng On Feb 12, 2008 5:25 PM, Apu islam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am in the process of writing a complete web application using > Mason(mod_perl) and some back end perl code on apache 2.
