in reply to Updated: Looking for something like DBD::HTML::Table
AnyData::Format::HTMLtable claims to support DBI directly:
use DBI; my $dbh = DBI->connect ("dbi:AnyData:"); $dbh->func ("table1", "HTMLtable", $filename, "ad_catalog"); my $hits = $dbh->selectall_arrayref ("select name from foo where bar = + 42"); # ... other DBI/SQL operations
I never used it, but it sounds more or less what you are looking for.
Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
