Thanks for the reply. ( Am replying back after a long time, sorry about that )
Here is what am trying to achieve.
Using a "submit" button, everything works correctly. But I would like to achieve the same just by clicking any of the options in "pop_up" menu using a java script.
I tried several other forms as posted above but I could not get none of them to work for my case ( I know I missed something very badly )
Could you please help me with that ?
This is just a quick code that I wrote to demonstrate what am trying to do and what is the problem in doing so. There are so many mistakes that are unrelated to the post, please ignore them.
Thanks for the reply again in advance
Code:
#! /opt/third-party/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw/:standard *table/;
my $cgi = CGI->new();
print $cgi->header('text/html');
sub generateHeader {
print $cgi->start_html(-title=>'Sample Test');
print $cgi->h3({-align=>'center'}, 'Sample Test Display');
print $cgi->start_form(-method => 'GET',
-name => 'main_form',
-action => 'test.cgi',
-enctype => 'multipart/form-data');
}
sub submitButtonGenerator {
my $button_name = shift;
print $cgi->submit(-value=>$button_name);
}
sub generateFooter {
my ($i, $tmp);
print $cgi->end_form();
print $cgi->hr();
print $cgi->end_html();
}
sub display {
my @arr = ('IceCream', 'Choco', 'Biscuit', 'Fruits');
my $edible_arr = \@arr;
print $cgi->popup_menu(-name=>'edible',
-values=>$edible_arr);
}
sub displayResult {
print $cgi->param("edible") . $cgi->br();
}
generateHeader;
display;
print $cgi->br();
print $cgi->br();
submitButtonGenerator("Go");
displayResult;
generateFooter;
exit(0);

cgi::compile
CGI::Compile(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CGI::Compile(3pm)NAME
CGI::Compile - Compile .cgi scripts to a code reference like ModPerl::Registry
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Compile;
my $sub = CGI::Compile->compile("/path/to/script.cgi");
DESCRIPTION
CGI::Compile is an utility to compile CGI scripts into a code reference that can run many times on its own namespace, as long as the script
is ready to run on a persistent environment.
NOTE: for best results, load CGI::Compile before any modules used by your CGIs.
RUN ON PSGI
Combined with CGI::Emulate::PSGI, your CGI script can be turned into a persistent PSGI application like:
use CGI::Emulate::PSGI;
use CGI::Compile;
my $cgi_script = "/path/to/foo.cgi";
my $sub = CGI::Compile->compile($cgi_script);
my $app = CGI::Emulate::PSGI->handler($sub);
# $app is a PSGI application
CAVEATS
If your CGI script has a subroutine that references the lexical scope variable outside the subroutine, you'll see warnings such as:
Variable "$q" is not available at ...
Variable "$counter" will not stay shared at ...
This is due to the way this module compiles the whole script into a big "sub". To solve this, you have to update your code to pass around
the lexical variables, or replace "my" with "our". See also <http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/porting.html#The_First_Mystery> for more
details.
