Hi, I'm attempting to plot a table with the following code -

my %verb = (
        'Bog' => 'Move',
        'Bris' => 'Break',
        'Buail' => 'Strike',
);

print $h->center
(
  $h->table
  (
    $h->Tr
    (
      $h->td
      (
        "Top"
      )
    ),

    map
    {
      $h->Tr
      (
        $h->td
        (
          $verb{$_}
        )
      )
    }keys %verb,

    $h->Tr
    (
      $h->td
      (
        'Bottom'
      )
    )
  )
);

But this is giving me -

<center>
<table>

<tr><td>Top</td></tr> 
<tr><td>Strike</td></tr> 
<tr><td>Break</td></tr> 
<tr><td>Move</td></tr> 
<tr><td></tr>

</table>
</center>

any ideas why? And is there a better way of doing this because it gets messy when I begin to format the table and add more columns etc. Cheers. Barry.
