Using HTML::Template the template file would end up looking a bit like this 
<html><head><title>Hours Worked Status</title>
</head><body bgcolor = "white" text="black" link="black">+
<BASE HREF="http://nbpdexplorers.port5.com/">
<br><center><h1>Hours Worked Status</h1></center><br>
<center><h3>Today's Date: $date1<br><br>Total Event(s): $ttlevn+ts</h3
+></center>
<center><table border>
<colgroup align="center" span="27">
<tr><td></td>
<!-- TMPL_LOOP months -->
<th><!-- TMPL_VAR month_name --></th>
<!-- /TMPL_LOOP months -->
<th><!-- TMPL_VAR total --></th>
</tr></colgroup><colgroup align="left">
<!-- TMPL_LOOP personnel -->
<tr>
  <td><!-- TMPL_VAR name --></td>
  <!-- TMPL_LOOP workinghours -->
  <td><!-- TMPL_VAR hours --></td>
  <!-- /TMPL_LOOP workinghours --> 
</tr>
<!-- /TMPL_LOOP personnel -->
</table><center><p><a href="http://nbpdexplorers.port5.com/c+gi-bin/ma
+inpage.cgi?name=$name"><h3>Back To Administrative Options<+/h3></a>
</p></center></body></html>

The data structures would look like 

$template->param(months => [{monthname=>'January'},
                            {monthname=>'Febuary'},
...                         {monthname=>'December'}]);

$template->param(personnel => [{name=>'Bottum',
                                workinghours =>[{hours=>aaa},
              {hours=>aaa},
...],
total => bbb},
                        {name=>'Bottum',
                                workinghours =>[{hours=>aaa},
              {hours=>aaa},
...],
total => bbb},
]);

This is only a quick hack based on your html but it should give you an idea.

Hope this helps
