what I have is an array of anonymous hash.
How do I access "name2" (second hash key) independently? Without using a loop?

Ex. I have to mkdir using "name2" then how can I pass it directly to a scalar?

my $scalar = $links ...

$scalar should be 'name2'

I am extremely new to references :|

Hi Raphael

Are you aware that Perl arrays start at index zero?

  my $scalar = 'name2';

  print $links[0]{$scalar}, "\n";

HTH,

Rob
