I'd go from the opposite direction. I'd start with an html template that has the (outer elements of the) table pre-written.

Then, I'd use perl or PHP to scrape the text file and drop the listed values into rows. That works out to a file read and a loop, and all the hard work is done before you run the script.

NAME
podtree2html - translate a POD to HTML SYNOPSIS
"podtree2html" ["--base" url] ["--css" url] ["--"["no"]"toc"] ["--hr" level] ["--bgcolor" #rrggbb] ["--text" #rrggbb] ["--variables" values.pl] source dest [template] [variable=value ...]] DESCRIPTION
"podtree2html" reads the POD in file source, translates it to HTML, and writes it to file dest. dest is created world-readable. If a template file is provided, then template will be filled in by the "Text::Template" module and written to dest. Here is a minimal template, showing all the variables that are set by "podtree2html". <html> <head> <base href="{$base}"> <link href="{$css}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <title>{$title}</title> </head> <body bgcolor="{$bgcolor}" text="{$text}"> {$toc} {$body} </body> </html> If the "--variables" option is provided, then the file values.pl will be executed with a "do" call before the template is filled in. values.pl may contain arbitrary Perl code. The program fragments in the template are evaulted in the "Pod::Tree::HTML" package. Any variables that values.pl sets in this package will be available to the template. Additional scalar variables may be set on the command line with the variable=value syntax. Do not prefix variable with a "$" sigil. Variables set on the command line override variables set in values.pl. OPTIONS
"--base" url Translate "L<>" sequences into HTML links relative to url. "--css" url Specifies a Cascanding Style Sheet for the generated HTML page. Here are example rules for all the different HTML elements that may appear in a POD. a:link { background: #ff8080 } body { background: #f0f0f0 } code { background: #c0ffc0 } dd { background: #ffffe0 } dl { background: #fffff0 } dt { background: #ffffc0 } h1 { background: #ffc0c0 } h2 { background: #ffe0e0 } hr { background: #ff0000; height: 5px } i { background: #ffc0c0 } li { background: #e0e0e0 } ol { background: #fff0ff } p { background: #f0f0ff } pre { background: #f0fff0 } ul { background: #f0ffff } "--"["no"]"toc" Includes or omits the table of contents. Default is to include the TOC. "--hr" level Controls the profusion of horizontal lines in the output, as follows: level horizontal lines 0 none 1 between TOC and body 2 after each =head1 3 after each =head1 and =head2 Default is level 1. "--bgcolor" #rrggbb Set the background color to #rrggbb. Default is white. "--text" #rrggbb Set the text color to #rrggbb. Default is black. "--variables" values.pl Execute the file values.pl with a "do" call before filling in template. values.pl may contain arbitrary Perl code. REQUIRES
