Please wrap *all* code within code tags. As you can see, the block looks good, but the snippets within the opening sentences are indecipherable.

Also, even though this is relatively short, it's best to give your variables reasonable names (especially when asking others to debug your software), so that it's easier on the mind and the eyes to spot issues.

Without yet reading the code, your subject says something... @var is an array, and $var is a scalar which may be an array reference. Again, haven't read the code, but you may be mixing up your own vars here due to naming issues...
