Does any one know how to remove an element from a hash? suppose I have: 
html(name=>img,src="../hosted/image1.gif",width=>16,height=>16);
sub html
{
   %param = @_;
   print "<$param{name} ";
   foreach $key (keys (%param))
   {
     print "$key=\"$param{$key}\" ";
   }
   print ">\n";
}

Now, I need to remove the value of $param{name}, but how do I do that? Shift? Some code to support your response would help. All the function html does is take the element name, and use every other element as HTML attributes, so that input renders: 
<img src="../hosted/image1.gif" width="16" height="16">
