=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item C<connect( @database_credentials )>

Connects to the database. See L<DBI> for how to do that.
Optionally, create your own database handle and pass it:

  my $dbh = DBI->connect ( @db_creds );
  my $generator = DBIx::HTML->connect( $dbh );

  # do stuff and then finally ...
  $dbh->disconnect;

DBIx::HTML will not disconnect your database handle.

=item C<do( $query )>

Executes the SQL query, fetches the results and stores them internally.

=head1 SPREADSHEET::HTML METHODS

All methods from Spreadsheet::HTML are delegated. Simply call
any one of the methods provided and supply your own arguments.
For example, to group table rows into respective <thead>, <tbody>
and <tfoot> sections:

  print $generator->portrait( tgroups => 2 ); # why 2? answer in the docs!

Or perhaps you want to wrap headings with <td> instead of <th>:

  print $generator->portrait( matrix => 1 );

Or have some fun:

  print $generator->conway;

See L<Spreadsheet::HTML> for full documentation for these methods and
the named parameters they accept as arguments.
