    To be really clever: (unless you have more concrete requirements about your html file) *untested* 

    use strict;

my $fh;
my $file_name = "/path/to/resultfile.txt";
open($fh, '<', $file_name) or die ("couldn't open $filename");

my $fh2;
my $html_file = "/path/to/htmlfile.html";
open($fh2, '>', $html_file)  or die ("couldn't open $html_file");

print $fh2 "<html><head><title>Results</title></head><body>";

while (<$fh>) {
  print $fh2 "<p>$_</p>";
}
print $fh2 "</body></html>";
close $fh;
close $fh2;
