It's in the docs. CGI.pm has some very cool things you can do with
tables and rows using a neat distributive trick:
use CGI qw/:standard :html3/;
print table({-border=>undef},
caption(strong('When Should You Eat Your Vegetables?')),
Tr({-align=>CENTER,-valign=>TOP},
[
th(['','Breakfast','Lunch','Dinner']),
th('Tomatoes').td(['no','yes','yes']),
th('Broccoli').td(['no','no','yes']),
th('Onions').td(['yes','yes','yes'])
]
)
);
This produces:
<table border="1"><caption><strong>When Should You Eat Your
Vegetables?</strong></caption>
<tr ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP"><th></th> <th>Breakfast</th>
<th>Lunch</th> <th>Dinner</th></tr>
<tr ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP"><th>Tomatoes</th><td>no</td> <td>yes</td>
<td>yes</td></tr>
<tr ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP"><th>Broccoli</th><td>no</td> <td>no</td>
<td>yes</td></tr>
<tr ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP"><th>Onions</th><td>yes</td> <td>yes</td>
<td>yes</td></tr>
</table>
