If $t references a table consisting of 3 entries: (foo => 1) (foo => 2) (foo => 3) then the docs say that print "($a => $b)\n" while ($a, $b) = each %$t; will reproduce the above 3 lines. But what you actually get is (foo => 1) (foo => 1) (foo => 1) > Apache::FakeTable apes Apache::Table much more closely now, including > its C<each> behavior, as well as C<keys> Neat. > and C<values> (the latter being pretty much useless). Too bad that Apache/APR::Table doesn't get this right. Maybe we should have a look at how Matt Sergeant implemented CDB_File, since he may have found a way/hack (requires XS) to get each() and values() to DTRT with multivalued keys. -- Joe Schaefer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
