I am getting the hash reference values from the database through the keys of the hash values. I have a record with 3 fields in my backend. When i am retrieving the record with a particular field I am getting displayed only the number of fields, not the contents of the field which is 1,13 in this case(which are the actual values of the field). I am using these values in an combox box of a CGI application web page for multiple selection of an item. Only when i am pushing that hash values it is not getting displayed. In other areas, like retrieving rows it works fine. Please suggest me how can i proceed. I thank you for your suggestions.
