The following uses HTML::Tokeparser and should give you a starting point: 
use strict;
use warnings;

use HTML::TokeParser;

my $p = HTML::TokeParser->new( "file.html" );

while ( my $t = $p->get_token )
{
    #forward comments, text and declarations
    if ( $t->[0] =~ /[CDT]/ )
    {
        print $t->[1];
    }
    
    #uppercase start tags
    elsif ( $t->[0] =~ /S/ )
    {
        print
          "<",
          uc($t->[1]),
          " ",
          join (" ", map { uc($_) . '="' . $t->[2]->{$_} . '"' } @{$t-
+>[3]}),
          ">";
    }
    
    #uppercase end tag
    elsif ( $t->[0] =~ /E/ )
    {
        print uc($t->[2]);
    }
   
    #forward processing instruction
    elsif ( $t->[0] =~ /PI/ )
    {
        print $t->[2];
    }
}

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
