I have been tasked with generating a png file containing a grid-like representation of data from a database. I have all the code to retrieve the data, but am lost when it comes to picking a package that will generate the grid for me. I saw TK:TixGrid, but it seems that the whole TK family is more tailored towards GUI, and user front-ends that for report output. As for requirements, I need to be able to put a title at the top of the grid, and I need the ability to "inverse" values that are "out of range". Other than that, it just needs to look like Excel output, without the windows platform.
Any ideas?

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).
