Doesn't look like you are resetting the $bgeven variable to a default
value (maybe you want it blank?).
May you should use the ?: operator:
foreach (@data) {
$bg = ($cnt % 2) ? qq(BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF") : qq(BGCOLOR="#AAAAAA");
print qq(<tr $bg> stuff stuf stuff </tr>);
$cnt++;
}
Note also the use of the qq() double-quote like operator, so you don't
need to use backslashes.
