Here's how I go about it:
- What's my stored data?
Design the structure of the data for the application
and classes that will access the data, starting with the
tests that verify that they are doing the right things.
- How will I display my data?
Write classes that will call the data and filter it out into a display.
At first write some dummy data to play with.
(These days I write pseudo data tables with
the classes so that I can call them easily for testing. DBD::CSV is a fav.)
- How will I write my data?
Write forms that will send the data via its classes to the database.
- How will it look?
Create templates that the data can be punched into.
These steps can be very simple or very complex, depending.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
