If you are using Net::FTP to get a listing then you've alreadly done half of the work. Net::FTP's list function should give you all of the files in an array. After you have that just print the start of the page either using CGI.pm or you can hand code it (best done in a here doc). Then just use a foreach loop to print each entry: 

foreach my $file (@file_list) {
   print "<p>$file</p>\n"; #This is basic, format as required.
}

After that just send the page ending stuff (</body>, </html>) the same way you generated the beginning of the page.
