Changing it to Tr from tr definitely helped, now the first row is not printing at all, but the rest (which I did not show you the code for) does print, but without the first row, it prints in a rather messy fashion - the column cells do not have the right size.

Again,what I am trying to do is give Tr a reference to a hash which has all of the first row cells in it. Can I do that?

Without seeing the code it's hard to know what the problem is. We could guess, but that would almost certainly be a waste of both your time and ours.

You seem to be changing your story. Previously you have been telling us that you are trying to pass Tr an array. Now you say it's a hash. Which is it?

A table row doesn't contain data directly. They are supposed to be in td or th elements. Given an array that contains the data for a table row, you need code like this (again, assuming the function-oriented interface to CGI.pm as, in my opinion, it's far easier to use):

print Tr(td(\@array));
