Hi Monks!

My program sends HTML email no problem, but now I need to include a little logic inside of the "Data => qq| |,", I am using MIME::Lite, it works, but I need help on how to use this logic inside the "Data=> " part, please take a look at the code I included here, right where I commented its where I need to include the logic to make this work:

my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
        From    => 'Report',
        To      => $emails,
        Subject => "Num: 1",
        Type    => 'multipart/related') or die "Error Creating Message
+: $!\n";

$msg->attach(
            Type => 'text/html',
            Data => qq|
<table width="760" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor=
+"#ffffff">
  <tr>
    <td width="760"colspan="2" height="35" bgcolor="#ffc6a5"><b>Report
+ Received:</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td colspan=2>&nbsp;</td></tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="100" height="">Name:</td>
    <td width="">$name</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="100" height="">Email:</td>
    <td width="">$email</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
  
    <td colspan=\"2\" width="100%">
     

    <table width="760" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgco
+lor="#ffffff">
      <tr>
          <td width="760"colspan="7" height="35" bgcolor="#ffc6a5"><b>
+Form:</b></td>
      </tr>
      <tr><td colspan="6">&nbsp;</td></tr>
      <tr>
          <td>NAME:</td>
          <td colspan="6">$user</td>
      </tr>
      <tr><td colspan="6">&nbsp;</td></tr>
      <tr>
        <td width="" height="">Number:</td>
        <td width="" height="">Menu:</td>
        <td width="" height="">Description:</td>
        <td width="" height="">ID1:</td>
        <td width="" height="">ID2:</td>
        <td width="" height="">Deliver:</td>
      </tr>
# I must have this logic here to have this working      
$alt_color=0;
$c=-1;
foreach (@system_names){
$c++;

$color1="#f3f3f3"; $color2="#a1a1a1";
$rowcolor = $alt_color++%2 ? $color1:$color2;

my $out =  "    
           <tr bgcolor=\"$rowcolor\">
        <td width=\"\">$system_names[$c]</td>
        <td width=\"\">$name_names[$c]</td>
        <td width=\"\">$menu_names[$c]</td>
        <td width=\"\">$option_names[$c]</td>
        <td width=\"\">$system_names[$c]</td>
        <td width=\"\">Received</td>
       </tr>
";      

}

# end logic
    </table>
     
     
    </td>
    
  </tr>
  <tr><td colspan=2>&nbsp;</td></tr>
  <tr>
    <td colspan="2" height="30" bgcolor="#46575f" align="left" valign=
