This is concise, but don't do it this way — I was just challenging myself to output the entire table in one print statement using no pesky variables. Fetching one row at a time is more memory efficient if your table has more than a few rows.

use strict;
use warnings;
use DBI;
use Data::Dumper;
use HTML::Entities qw/encode_entities/;

my $dbh = DBI->connect('DBI:SQLite:', undef, undef, { RaiseError => !!
+1 });

$dbh->do($_) for split /;;/, <<'GO';
CREATE TABLE example (
    id integer,
    name varchar,
    age integer,
    PRIMARY KEY(id)
);;
INSERT INTO example VALUES (1, 'Alice', 25);;
INSERT INTO example VALUES (2, 'Bob', 26);;
INSERT INTO example VALUES (3, 'Carol', 24);;
INSERT INTO example VALUES (4, 'Dave', 25);;
INSERT INTO example VALUES (5, 'Eve', 666);;
GO

my $sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM example');
$sth->execute();

print(
    "<table>\n".
    "\t<thead>\n".
    "\t\t<tr>".join('', map sprintf('<th>%s</th>', encode_entities($_)
+), @{$sth->{NAME_lc}})."</tr>\n".
    "\t</thead>\n".
    "\t<tbody>\n".
    join("\n",
        map sprintf(
            "\t\t<tr>%s</tr>",
            join '', map sprintf('<td>%s</td>', encode_entities($_)), 
+@$_
        ),
        @{ $sth->fetchall_arrayref })."\n".
    "\t</tbody>\n".
    "</table>\n"
);
