blink has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have a program that produces text output. I want to reformat the data to include such elements as HTML headers, tables, text-formatting, etc. Is there a module that does this? I'm a little unclear about whether or not HTML::Template is what I need.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    I would consider HTML::FromText first. If it doesn't solve your problem fully, then try HTML::Template. The biggest problem i see with HTML::FromText is that is does not generate XHTML, but you might be able to get away with filtering the output through tidy.
