in reply to Re^3: Creating an array of hash references
in thread Creating an array of hash references
Thanks for the replies. It turns out the problem was when I initialized the array to hold the references, I stupidly added a blank entry, so when I started pushing to the array it already had an entry. Duh. So my parsing routine puked at the first value, and when I examined the array, I looked at the first value, saw it was garbage. Thanks for putting me on the right track!
