Why must you <b>join()</b> these values instead of just storing them with common separators?
<code>
$users{$username}"$password::$name::$email::$website::$start";
</code>
This stores only the first form field/variable and forgets everything else. But if you join the variables, it works.
<code>
my $data = join("::", $password, $name, $email, $website, $start);
$users{$username} = $data;
</code>
Can someone explain why you can't manually add your own delimiters in this particular line?
