HTML::Template::Expr  will allow you to do stuff like:

<TMPL_LOOP NAME=3D"MY_LOOP">
    Do something with <TMPL_VAR NAME=3D"MY_VAR">
    <TMPL_UNLESS EXPR=3D"(__counter__ % 3) || (__last__)">=20
        <br>
    </TMPL_UNLESS>
</TMPL_LOOP>

try something like

<TMPL_LOOP ROWS>
  <TMPL_LOOP COLS>
    <TMPL_VAR NAME>
  </TMPL_LOOP>
  <br>
</TMPL_LOOP>

where ROWS are like this:

ROWS = [
  {
     COLS => [ { NAME => 'name1' }, { NAME => 'name2' }, { NAME => 'name3' } ]
  },
  {
     COLS => [ { NAME => 'name4' }, { NAME => 'name5' }, { NAME => 'name6' } ]
  }
]
