[ale] perl CGI.pm and width=>100% ??

[James P. Kinney III]

Nope. The braces define the formating area, the remaining space inside
the parentheses is the the table data (rows, td, and cell contents).

from perldoc CGI:

          print table({-border=>undef},
                  caption('When Should You Eat Your Vegetables?'),
                  Tr({-align=>CENTER,-valign=>TOP},
                  [
                     th(['Vegetable', 'Breakfast','Lunch','Dinner']),
                     td(['Tomatoes' , 'no', 'yes', 'yes']),
                     td(['Broccoli' , 'no', 'no',  'yes']),
                     td(['Onions'   , 'yes','yes', 'yes'])
                  ]
                  )
               );
