Thanks, that looks like what I was looking for.  I also found an
HTML::Table module on CPAN.

Barry,
    Check out
 http://stein.cshl.org/WWW/software/CGI/cgi_docs.html
because the author of the CGI module shows a few neat tricks I have not
seen
elsewhere, For instance, if you needed to iterate over an 'array of
arrays'
to display the results of a database query and you want to display the
results in a table you can break the $query->table into
$query->start_table
and $query->end_table pairs and do the same for Tr (table row) by:
use CGI qw( *table *Tr );
I found this very handy where I needed to use a for loop to print the
result
of a database query in tabular format.

Does anybody know of a module to manage generating HTML tables?  Is
there anything in CGI.pm?  Does anyone have any tips to generating
semi-complex tables?
