Almost. I believe you have to state the size of the string within the
printf function call. For example....
printf "<TD> %10s <TD>\n", $string;
This will print "<TD>", then a string of size 10, then all the rest as
normal C does. I am not sure why perl requires this, but I believe this
is how it works.
