I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with HTML::Template, but this post motivated me to try solving this problem with Template Toolkit. 

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
  [% row = 0 %]
  [% FOREACH table_row %]
    [% row_bg = row % 2 ? 'c0c0c0' : 'e0e0e0' %]
    <tr>
      <td style="background-color: [% row_bg %]">[% content_column_1 %
+]
      </td>
      <td style="background-color: [% row_bg %]">[% content_column_2 %
+]
      </td>
    </tr>
    [% row = row + 1 %]
  [% END %]
</table>

Not exactly an answer to your question, but I thought I'd post it nonetheless. :-)
