G'day rjohn1,

I suspect your problem lies with the declaration of $temp_var (or possibly lack of declaration). The absence of arguments to pop_user_entry() may also be an issue. You haven't shown enough code for me to tell.

Please supply a short working script. It should include the strict and warnings pragmata and, obviously, show the call to pop_user_entry(). It only needs code relevant to the problem at hand: please do not include anything beyond this. Also provide verbatim copies of any warning or error messages you're seeing.

If you do this, I'll happily look at the problem.
