NAME

   HTMLTable - Make a HTML table from DBI query output.

SYNOPSIS

    use DBI::HTMLTable;

    &DBI::HTMLTable::HTMLTable ($data, $width);

    &DBI::HTMLTable::HTMLTableByRef ($dataref, $width);

DESCRIPTION

The DBI::HTMLTable functions take the results of a DBI query and format it as an HTML table. The second parameter provides the width="" parameter to the <TABLE> tag in the output. If it is omitted, then the table width is the browser's default page width.

The function HTMLTable() uses the query output formatted as a multi-line string. HTMLTableByRef uses a reference to an array of array references, as returned by the DBI fetchall_arrayref() function and similar functions.

  $data = $dbh -> selectall_arrayref( "select \* from $db" );
  &DBI::HTMLTable::HTMLTableByRef ($data);

An example CGI script is provided in eg/tablequery.cgi in the distribution package.
