Hi all, I am still learning perl. I am having trouble figuring out the complexities of perl variables and how the referencing works. I've tried reading the perldoc on reftut. Any help here would be appreciated.

I have the following code and I need to pull out the amount in the tables....
---------------------------------------------- 
$tes = new HTML::TableExtract(headers => [qw(Summer)]);
$tes->parse($mech->content());

and then I'm trying to figure out how to grab the values....

foreach $ts ($tes->table_states) {
   foreach $row ($ts->rows) 
   {
                print $row->[1],"999\n";
   }
}

----------------------------------------------
Summer appears in 2 tables at the same depth. and there are some empty fields as well. The amount will always be in the same position in the tables. Please help
---------------------------------------------- 
Table (2,10):
^M
                                                                      
+  ^M
    $1,485.14^M
             ^M

Table (2,13):
^M

             ^M
   $1,623.57^M
             ^M
