Hi,

I've been trying to write a configuration file with one string, but the string includes an whole object not just one line like the most configuration modules work:

host
host='example.com'
port='80'

But in my case it's a bigger object, this is how parse.pl looks like:

#!/usr/bin/perl

my $p = Parse::BBCode->new({
            tags => {
                '' => sub {
                    my $e = Parse::BBCode::escape_html($_[2]);
                    $e =~ s/\r?\n|\r/<br>\n/g;
                    $e
                },
                i   => '<i>%s</i>',
                b   => '<b>%{parse}s</b>',
                field => '<fieldset>%{parse}s</fieldset>',
                size => '<font size="%a">%{parse}s</font>',
                url => 'url:<a href="%{link}A">%{parse}s</a>',
                wikipedia => 'url:<a href="http://wikipedia.../?search
+=%{uri}A">%{parse}s</a>',
                noparse => '<pre>%{html}s</pre>',
                quote => 'block:<blockquote>%s</blockquote>',
                code => {
                    code => sub {
                        my ($parser, $attr, $content, $attribute_fallb
+ack) = @_;
                        if ($attr eq 'perl') {
                            # use some syntax highlighter
                            $content = highlight_perl($content);
                        }
                        else {
                            $content = Parse::BBCode::escape_html($$co
+ntent);
                        }
                        "<tt>$content</tt>"
                    },
                    parse => 0,
                    class => 'block',
                },
                hr => {
                    class => 'block',
                    output => '<hr>',
                    single => 1,
                },
            },
        }
    );
1;

and parse.pl is located in the dir: /var/www/board/parse.pl where my other forum scripts are running from, I know it's really simple but no internet resource could give me the answer please help me.
