Hi Randall,

I don't actually *know* if this helps you, but since PHP does have the concept 
of associative arrays, I could imagine
that you'll need to write both PHP arrays as hashes in Perl - something like:

my %data = { 0 => { title => 'Name', data => 'Randall' },
                    1 => { title => 'email', data => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' }
                  };

HTH,
Philipp
