Ooooo, so close!

I was all ready to hand you the gold star for this solution, until I realized, it drops the key entirely. Try this somewhere in the code you've suggested, and then try it again after putting the url back up into place in the template, manually:

    my %params = %{$config{'template'}};
    print $params{'home_url'};

However, this works, but isn't as elegant:

    print $config{'template'}->{'home_url'};

Update: After screwing my head on straight, I realized that my initializer for %params was before the modification to the hash, and should have been after. This works properly, as it should:

   my %config = ParseConfig(\*DATA);

   for (keys %{$config{template}}) {
      if (/^http/) {
         $config{template}{home_url} = $_;
         delete $config{template}{$_};
         last;
      }
   }
   $Data::Dumper::Sortkeys = \%config;
   print Dumper(\%config);  
   print $params{'home_url'};

Please ignore that man behind the curtain, it's just me making silly mistakes again.
