First time posting so I appreciate any replies and patience required to deal with me.
Clicking a button builds some additional HTML. Now, included in that additional HTML is another button. I want the new button to perform some additional task using CGI::AJAX as well. I've got no problem getting the initial CGI::AJAX setup and working, but I'm not sure where to start on getting the second button declared with a new subroutine to parse.
Some sample code.
After clicking whoohoo I want to now click whoopy and change the 'innerDiv' from poop to tinkle.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI ':standard';
use CGI::Ajax;
# use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); # Uncomment for debugging
ajaxifyView();
sub ajaxifyView {
my $cgi = new CGI;
my $ajx = new CGI::Ajax ( 'viewsub' => \&subViewSub );
$ajx->JSDEBUG(0);
print $ajx->build_html ($cgi, \&buildHTML);
}
sub buildHTML {
my $q = new CGI;
my $html;
$html .= $q->start_html;
$html .= $q->start_table;
$html .= $q->Tr(
$q->td($q->textfield(-name=>'pantyhoes', -id=>'pantyhoes',
+ -value=>'sometext'))
);
$html .= $q->Tr(
$q->td($q->button(-name=>'whoohoo', -onclick=>"viewsub(['p
+antyhoes'], ['DisplayDiv'])")),
$q->td($q->div({-id=>'DisplayDiv'}, 'ReplaceMe'))
);
$html .= $q->end_table;
$html .= $q->end_html;
return $html;
}
sub subViewSub {
my $q = new CGI;
my $innerHTML;
$innerHTML .= $q->hidden(-name=>'smoosh', -value=>"tinkle");
$innerHTML .= $q->button(-name=>'whoopy', -onclick=>"viewsub([
+'smoosh'], ['innerDiv'])");
$innerHTML .= $q->div({-id=>'innerDiv'},"poop");
return ($innerHTML);
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
