If I understood the question right, than, (from the docs): 
 # Shorthand...top level rows() method assumes the first table found i
+n
 # the document if no arguments are supplied.
 foreach $row ($te->rows) {
     print join(',', @$row), "\n";
 }

Then the answer might be: 
use strict;
use warnings;

use HTML::TableExtract;
use Data::Dumper;

my $html_string = qq{
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr><th>Name</th><th>Place</th><th>Country</th><th>Telephone</th></tr>
<tr><td>Justin</td><td>California</td><td></td><td>12345</td></tr>
<tr><td>Catherine</td><td>Texas</td><td>USA</td><td>2419422</td></tr>
</table>
</html>
};

my $te = HTML::TableExtract->new(
    headers => ['Name', 'Place', 'Country', 'Telephone'],
);
$te->parse($html_string);

print Dumper($te->rows);

  • 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.
