debugfs and dump help

Hi
I accidently deleted a file and am trying to recover them using debugfs

I see the inode of the deleted files is marked as < 0>.
===
debugfs: ls -ld
4916335 40755 4524 100 4096 30-Jan-2006 23:38 .
5506117 40777 4524 100 4096 30-Jan-2006 17:21 ..
< 0> 0 0 0 0 Content
< 0> 0 0 0 0 4913
< 0> 0 0 0 0
query-property-type.pl
< 0> 0 0 0 0 property_type_1.0.pl
< 0> 0 0 0 0
property_type_1.0.pl.bk
===


A ls -d displays the inodes of the deleted files.
===
debugfs: ls -d
4916335 (12) . 5506117 (4084) .. <1983677> (4072) Content
<4916338> (12) 4913 <4916372> (108) query-property-type.pl
<4916357> (28) property_type_1.0.pl <4916388> (48) property_type_1.0.pl.bk
===

using dump <4916357> /var/tmp/recover-query-property-type.pl , I don;t
recover the blocks pointed by the inode.

Any ideas ? Is recovery still possible.

Appreciate your help
Thanks
