Sometime Today, Vickydhiman assembled some asciibets to say:

download from CPAN and follow the instructions. You need DBD::Oracle.
DBI is the same as what you already have installed.

HTML is a markup language interpreted most commonly by web browsers.
HTML does not communicate with databases.
In perl (note, it is not PERL, do NOT say PERL), the DBI is an abstract
interface to any database, while the DBD is the database driver that is
specific to each database. You need the Oracle DBD to interface with
oracle. Oracle also has C libraries to interface with the database, you
could write your own code that uses these libraries.
Your best bet for integrating your Perl/CGI programs with a database is
to use CGI.pm and HTML::Template.pm. HTML::Pager.pm may also help.
These modules have methods that make it easy to integrate with a
database. The HTML::Template man page also has examples on how to
populate your templates from a database.
