Hi guys,

I'm having some troubles to insert a hash into a hash?

This is a similar code: 
#global hash list example
my %hashList = {}; 

#second global hash
my %secondHash = (  
    car => "NULL",
    bike => "NULL",
    cat => "NULL",
    etc => "NULL",
);

#inside procedure "add"
$hashList->{$count} = %secondHash;

Then I try to print it: 
my %hashtemp = $hashList->{$count};
while ( my ($key, $value) = each(%hashtemp) ) {
        print "\n$key => $value\n";
}

[download]
And I get a bad output: "9/16 => "

Is this supposed to work? What is wrong in my code?

Thanks!!
