I don't know much about jQuery, but the general idea is to create the table content in Perl (using a templating system, like Template::Toolkit, HTML::Template or maybe Mojolicious), and then send that to the browser.

Something like the following: 

use Mojolicious::Lite;

get '/' => sub {
    my( $c ) = @_;

    # fake fetch rows from database
    # my $sth = $dbh->prepare( "select id, name from mytable order by 
+id" );
    # my @rows = $sth->fetchall_arrayref( {} );
    my @rows = (
        { id => 10123, , name => 'Jane Doe' },
        { id => 20911, , name => 'John Devo' },
    );

    $c->stash( rows => \@rows );
    $c->render( 'index' );
}

<!DOCTYPE html>

% for my $row (@$rows) {
<tr><td><%= $row->{id} ></td><td><%= $row->{name} </td></tr>
% }
</table>
</body>
