CGI::Ajax, Using Perl to do AJAX

CGI::Ajax (formerly know as the module CGI::Perljax) is a perl-specific system for writing AJAX- or DHTML-based web applications. CGI::Ajax could be downloaded from sourceforge at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pjax, and you can find many demos on their new website. Dominic Mitchell have previously written an article about using AJAX from Perl at Perl.com featuring CGI::Ajax.

CGI::Ajax is an object-oriented module that provides a unique mechanism for using perl code asynchronously from javascript-enhanced web pages.

[...]

A primary goal of CGI::Ajax is to keep the module streamlined and maximally flexible. We are trying to keep the generated javascript code to a minimum, but still provide users with a variety of methods for deploying CGI::Ajax.

I think that Perl, wich is one of my favorite programming languages of taste, it can really push itself further by evolving with Ajax.

Creating ajax applications with Perl can be seen happening in the near future.

We are already seeing Modules being created.

Perl is the only language I have found to be both secure and flexible. Although it currently does not have support for AJAX, I have managed to push all my apps to work with its dynamics. It would be extremely beneficial for perl to adapt.

Perl & Ajax have nothing to do with each other.

AJAX stands for Active Javascript And XML , it's client side functionality calling server side scripts which can be written in any language and are completely seperate from each other.
