Hi,

I am new to perl and i was given a task to create a pdf using pdf::api2 and pdf::table. I am able to create the pdf, however, when i tried to loop tables/rows using foreach (since the data were queried from the database), it gave me syntax error. Does looping tables/rows are possible using the said two modules? Please check my codes below

foreach my $ship_prod (@SHIP_PRODS){
                my($_t_id,$p_id,$stat_id,$qty) = split(/$SEP_CHAR/,$sh
+ip_prod);
$rows = ["", "$ALL_PRODS{$p_id}",""]
if(exists($ALL_MAN{$p_id}) && length($ALL_MAN{$p_id}) > 0){
$rows =     ["", "$ALL_MAN{$p_id}",""]
}
# build the table layout
$pdftable->table(
# required params
$pdf,$page, $thirdtable,
x       => 5,
start_y => 470,
next_y  => 450,
start_h => 200,
next_h  => 250,
# some optional params
w => 600, 
 padding => 5,
padding_right => 10,
font_size => 8,
)
}
