Hi, Mariusz, :)
I don't qualify as an expert, but this might do the trick:
my %params;
$params{$_} = param($_) foreach param();
If I understand your code correctly, param() returns a list of all the
possible keys, right? If so, then the above code should work. You refer to
the parameters as $param{name} instead of just $name.
I hope that helps, :)
