In bar(), $idand $location, which fills your %location hash, are values and no references to anything.
I think that they are the values from coloum 'id' and 'location' from your database !!!
So if you want to get the location for i.e. id=4 you have to write $location{4}
But all in all you can do it a bit more easier I think:
use DBI;
my %location = map { $_->[0] => $_->[1] } @{$dbh->selectall_arrayref(
+'select id, location from ndmw_location')};
There's also a $dbh->selectall_hashref() possibility, but I can't figure out, how it works ;-)
Maybe perlodoc DBI can help ?
Hope this helps ?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
