in reply to How can I add a -id attribute to a perl cgi start_Tr ?

You need to pass the attributes as a hash ref

print $cgi->start_Tr( {-id => "thisID", -valign => "top"} );

      FWIW, I think is awkward usage and produces badly dated HTML.

      print $cgi->start_Tr({-id => "thisID", -valign => "top"});

      This is equivalent, less verbose, and less awkward–

      print '<tr id="thisID" valign="top">';

      I often use CGI to produce HTML but the strength lies in being able to tersely, e.g.–

      print table( Tr( td( \@long_list_of_td ) ) );

      So, for your use, I’d much rather inherit something like this–

      print Tr({-id => "thisID", -class => "CSSclass"},
         td("some stuff"),
         td("etc")
         );
