I think that merlyn's CGI.pm solution looks more consise, but here is another version anyway ... it uses HTML::Template:

use CGI qw(header); 
use HTML::Template;
 
my @array = (
   "Synergy", "Strategic fit", "Core competencies", "Out of the box",
   "Bottom line", "Revisit", "Take that off line", "24/7",
   "Out of the loop", "Benchmark", "Value-added", "Proactive",
   "Win-win", "Think out side the box", "Fast track", "Result driven",
   "Empower (ment)", "Knowledge base", "At the end of the day",
   "Touch base", "Mindset", "Client focus (ed)", "Ballpark",
   "Game plan",  "Leverage", "Top down", "User friendly", "On time",
   "Within budget", "Forecast", "Optimistic",
); 
 
my $html = do {local $/;<DATA>};
my $tmpl = HTML::Template->new(scalarref => \$html);

# double map borrowed from merlyn and slightly altered
$tmpl->param(
   row => [ 
      map {{
         col => [ 
            map { 
               { data => splice(@array, rand scalar @array, 1) }
            } 1..5 
         ]
      }} 1..5 
   ]
);

print header, $tmpl->output;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
