I built a web-based tool around Perl::Critic for my employer, and for 
syntax-coloring I used PPI::HTML. I have yet to see it get confused by 
anything, and it has had to chew through some pretty atrocious Perl code...

https://metacpan.org/module/PPI::HTML

I don't remember all the details off-hand, and I can't share the code 
unfortunately. But tomorrow when I'm back in my office I might look it 
over and see if I can relate a few helpful hints.
