No worries.

One more thing... how can I now use this ID to retieve all the info (or just the title) of a specific link? In other words, if I've saved a value (ID) above I would somehow like to use a global with a tag like <%global name($ID)%> to return the title of that link.

Pretty simple really;

Code:
sub {  

  my $ID    = $_[0]; 
  my $field = $_[1]; 
  my $table= $_[2];   

  my $val = $DB->table($table)->select( [$field], { ID => $ID })->fetchrow; 
  return $val; 

}

Call with;

<%global_name($ID,'FieldNme','TableName')%>

Hope that helps.

Cheers
