jerrygarciuh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Honored monks,
I am passing a hashref to this sub and using it to make a select box. I would like to sort this hash by value but I don't understand how to apply the wisdom of the docs found here to making this popup_menu with CGI via a hashref. Perldoc shows how to make an array of keys but how to call it here?
TIA,
jg
sub select_your_school { my $namesref = shift; print $q->header,start_html(-title=> 'Select Your School'),"Please + select your school from the f +ollowing list:", start_form, popup_menu({ -name => 'school_id', -values => $namesref }), p( checkbox({ -name=>'not_list +ed', -value=>'true', -label=>' My schoo +l is not in this list.'}), ), submit("Submit"), end_form, end_html; exit; }
