Hi fellow monks I am new to perl and i hope this question is too daft. I am try to monitor some cisco switches and want to create a simple html page for others to see the status of the switches. I am using snmp I can pull out the data. What I want to know is what is the best way to write the data from the array to a html page. I have posted the code just for the array, but I can post the rest if you think its necessary. Thanks in advance. 
sub get_data {
    $hostkey = shift;
    for($if = 2; $if < 26; $if++) {
    $if_name{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Cisco.$IfName.$if");
    $hw_type{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Cisco.$IfHwType.$if");
    $if_desc{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Generic.$ifDesc.$if");
    $if_speed{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Generic.$ifSpeed.$if");
    $bw_in{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Cisco.$IfInBitSec.$if");
    $bw_out{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Cisco.$IfOutBitSec.$if");
    $if_lineprot{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Cisco.$LineProto.$if")
+;
    $vm_Vlan{$hostkey}->{$if} = &get_snmp("$Specific.$vmvlan.$if");
    }
    return(0);
