Gossamer Forum: Products: Gossamer Links: Development, Plugins and Globals: Add links via script

Hi there

,

I am trying to add links to a Links table using the following code

Code:
$linkstbl->add({'CatLinks.CategoryID' => $new_cat_id, 
 Title => $diveshop->{name}, 
 URL => "http://", 
 street => $diveshop->{street}, 
 lat => $gps[0], 
 lng => $gps[1], 
 zipcode => $diveshop->{zipcode}, 
 phone => $diveshop->{phone}, 
 fax => $diveshop->{fax}, 
 Contact_Email => $diveshop->{email} }) or print $diveshop->{name}." failed to import: ".$GT::SQL::error."\n";

Needless to say, the script croaked with the following message

Code:
Content-type: text/html 

<h1>Software error:</h1> 
<pre>GT::SQL::Table (14311): Wrong argument passed to this subroutine. $obj-&gt;insert(HASH or HASH_REF or CGI) 
 only. at /var/home/d4drtools/d4dr-tools.com/www/diveshopdemo/mycgi/admin/Links/Table/Links.pm line 37. 
</pre> 
<p> 
For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message 
and the time and date of the error.

Thing is, I think it is time for me to learn what the differences between a hash and a hash_ref are. Since ,apparently, I can't seem to create
one properly. Or if some-one understand what I did wrong in this specific hash/hash_ref (???), please share your knowledge with me Smile

Thanks,
Happy weekend Laugh
