in thread UPDATED: Recursive function adds data to a hash/array

I am puzzled as to how you think the function would be calling itself. I can't see it in the code. 
($newvalue, @subgroup)=sub_pick_group_seg ($newvalue);

So while it is indeed calling itself, it would be nice if darkphorm explained in plain english what was trying to be accomplished. Better yet, included a small example of input and desired output. I can't make heads or tails of it.

    The input is an HTML file:

    <HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE><$=TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
This is a test of variable substition.<br>
<br>
Date=<$=DATE><br>
<br>
<table border=1>
  <tr>
    <th>firstname</th><th>lastname</th><th>Accounts</th>
  <tr>
  <@=USERDATA>
  <tr>
    <td><$=FIRSTNAME></td>
    <td><$=LASTNAME></td>
    <td>
      <table>
        <tr>
          <th>Account ID</th>
          <th>type</th>
          <th>Balance</th>
        </tr>
        <@=ACCOUNTDATA>
          <tr>
            <td><$=ACCID></td>
            <td><$=ACCTYPE></td>
            <td><$=ACCBALANCE></td>
          </tr>
        </@=ACCOUNTDATA>
      </table>
    </td>
  <tr>
  </@=USERDATA>
</table>
</BODY>

    The concept is to make the manipulation of the custom tags easy, so that the HTML-devs can do their thing with a page, and data can be easily inserted with hash variables.

      Since no one else has mentioned this: Why reinvent the bloody wheel? Theres dozens of various templating modules that already do this sort of thing. They're simple, easy and very well tested.
