Thanks, davido, I ended up with this in my final app:
while ($row = $sth->fetchrow_array()) {
push (@categories, $row);
}
I guess fetchrow and fetchall we appropriately named ;^) Now, I wish there were a fetchcol that just retrived a known column of a given row (intersection, so selectcol_arrayref wouldn't work) so I don't have to do:
$single_value = $categories[0];
after the fetch, and could just do:
$single_value = $sth->fetchcol_justone;

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).
