Good info, and I would only add one more mailing list to what is given:

DBI users group. Find them on CPAN or ACTIVESTATE.COM to subscribe, Just
monitor them for a while, there are some very slick examples you can pick up
on.

Subject: Re: html to SQL script


Let me speculate that the html files are WEB Pages, and that somehow (in the
future)
you will need to pull the pages out of the DATABASE and display them (after
an HTTP request)....
You need:
An SQL DATABASE
    Mysql
    msql
    postgresql

perl
DBI module
DBD::CSV   ## doesn't need a separate database, good to start
DBD::Mysql
DBD::

Books:
Oreilly's Perl: DBI book (cheetah, I think)
Oreilly's Prel CGI book (Rodent??)
goto oreilly's web site, download and print each of the sample chapters
provided for each book
you can also download the example code
