You don't show the exact code, but I suspect this is a perl issue. The code is returning a list, but you're expecting a scalar therefore only ever get '1' i.e. a list of one. Either, fix the code to return a scalar or to accept a list. e.g. try an array rather than a hash. _______________________________________________ List: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbix-class IRC: irc.perl.org#dbix-class SVN: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/DBIx-Class/ Searchable Archive: http://www.grokbase.com/group/dbix-class@lists.scsys.co.uk
