I've recently discovered Data::Dumper (I love it with all my heart, and don't know how I got through the last few years without it) but can't for the life of me seem to figure out why: 
my $userInfo;
my $number = 1;
my $temp = 1;
push @$userInfo, { number => $number, 
    name => param("n$i"), 
    id => param("id$i"), 
    rollSizzle => param("rs$i"), 
    roll => $temp, 
    sizzle => $temp} ;
print Dumper($userInfo);

[download]
is returning the following with Data::Dumper: 
$VAR1 = [ { '' => '', '1' => undef, 'rollSizzle' => 'roll', 'id' => 't
+est', 'name' => 'test', 'number' => 1 } ];

I may just be going nutz (or blanking out, due to staring at this screen for too long), but can anyone see why 'roll' and 'sizzle' aren't being assigned the value of '1'... instead of messing up the hash?

Any insight/help would be greatly appreciated :-)
