Re: 5.8 hash as a reference is deprecated??

Because it's wrong :-) You should be using a hash like a hash

%hash{$item_one}{$ip}
[download]

$hash{$item_one}{$ip}
[download]

or a hashref like a reference

$hashref->{$item_one}{$ip}
[download]

The %hash->{} code had undefined behaviour and is now (quite correctly) being deprecated .

`%hash{$item_one}{$ip}` [download] Not until Perl6 comes out! Perhaps you meant `$hash{$item_one}{$ip}` [download] -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
