i am new to cgi and the problem i am facing is that all my include files as well as images are getting aligned to left but i want them in center of the page . would preferably want to have a table format and put all my navigatyion header, footer and brand image inside it . how should i go about it any suggestive reading

the most osrry part of it that i have to use CGI.pm and nothing else as that is only what i available on the server and its not possible to install new modules " 

#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
my $cgi=new CGI;

print $cgi->header;


$region = $cgi->param("region");


print <<HERE;

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html lang="en-GB">
<head>
    <title>website
HERE


print <<HERE1;
    </title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-88
+59-1">
    <link href="../css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    
    <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
        var num=randIntNum();    
    </script>



</head>
<body>

#navigation header come here

print &printer('../navigation/de_nav_bar.html');

print <<HERE2;
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
    <tr valign="top">
        <td>
HERE2
#brand background image comes gere 
print <<HERE3;
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
    <tr valign="top"><img src="images/DE_1_2_2_BKG_Fine_Dining.jpg" al
+ign ="center">
        <td>
HERE3


                    
# navigation footer comes here 
print &printer('../navigation/de_template_footer.html');



sub printer
{
    my $a=shift;
    
    open(F,$a) or die("$a not opened\n");
    my $b;
    {
        local $/;
        $b=<F>;
    }
    return $b;
}
