Which of the many HTML modules or templating modules are you using at present and where are you having trouble with whatever you are using?

If you are not using any such tool at present perhaps you should at least mention the copntext for the question. It's pretty unusual for HTML tables to stand on their own and the rest of the task will influence what is most appropriate for your task.

You might like to start by looking at modules such as Template toolkit (for heavy lifting) or HTML::DBTable, HTML::Table, HTML::STable, HTML::HashTable or HTML::QuickTable (selected at - almost - random from them many available on CPAN).
