I HIGHLY recommend Lincoln Stein's CGI.pm book as he wrote the module. The
book is short, very easy to read and has great code. The answer to your
question is on pages 281-283.
print
table({-border=>''},
caption(strong('When Should you Eat your Vegetables?')),
tr( { -align=>CENTER, -valign=>TOP},
[ th(['', 'Breakfast', 'Lunch','Dinner'])),
th('Tomatoes'), td(['no','yes','yes'])),
th('Brocolli'), td(['no','no','yes'])),
th('Onions'), td(['yes','yes','yes']))
]
};
The text field function is on page 252-263. So, you'd do:
print textfield( -name=>'favorite_color', -value=>'purple', -size=>50,
-maxlength=>80);
In the above table it has one header row and four columns. You could put
whatever you want in the rows of course, here show the vegetable words and
yes/no. You can just as easily add the textfield() function.
There are a large number of variables you can use with tables (since tables
can be set in many different configurations).
