in reply to How to implement CSS in perl script.

First you need to print (X)HTML (or XML) not plain text.

Second you need to print correct HTTP header (to tell client browser what type of document you send).

Third if you need CSS (do you mean stylesheet?) use stylesheet as your document type demand. So you may use <link ... /> tag or <style ...>...</style> for (X)HTML or maybe XSLT for XML...

      Maybe you need something like this:

      print "<table><thead><tr><th>Slave_IO_State</th><th>Master_host</th><t
+h>Slave_IO_Running</th><th>Slave_SQL_Running</th></tr></thead><tbody>
+";
while ( my @val = $mas_hos->fetchrow_array() ) {

    print "<tr><td>$val[0]</td>";
    print "<td>$val[1]</td>";
    print "<td>$val[10]</td>";
    print "<td>$val[11]</td>";
    #print "<td>$val[33]</td>";
    print "</tr>\n"
}
print "</tbody></table>\n";
