Nope... didn't help :-(

Ok. Here's your problem: you're missing a comma in your print statement. It should read like so:

print "Qty:", $query->textfield(-name=>"qty$ingredientAoH[$i]{ingID}",
-default=>"$ingredientAoH[$i]{qty}", -size=>'10', -maxlength=>'20');

Note the comma between -default=>"$ingredientAoH[$i]{qty}" and -size=>'10'. That fixes your problem. :-)

Ahhhh.... Thank you so much this has really been bothering me as it looked right. I should know by now that if strange things are happening it's because of syntax problems. Now I can edit my recipes without having to replace all the quantities that are fractions.
