Insert mysql table into a div - php

Question

I have a problem in inserting table from my database to div.
html code:
<div class="content">
<?php
$query = "SELECT name, surname FROM players";
$response = #mysqli_query($dbc, $query);
if($response) {
echo' <table align="left"
cellspacing="5" cellpadding="8" >
<tr><td align="left"><b>First Name</b></td>
<td align="left"><b>Last Name</b></td></tr>';
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($response)) {
echo '<tr><td align="left">' .
$row['imie'] . '</td><td align="left">' .
$row['nazwisko'] . '</td><td align="left">';
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
} else {
echo "Couldn't issue database query";
echo mysqli_error($dbc);
}
mysqli_close($dbc);
?>
</div>
css code:
.content {
width: 1000px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-color: #ffffff;
color: #000000;
border-bottom: 14px solid #333333;}
Is there a way to insert this table to this div? Because when I'm loading this, the table is under my div'content'. The table should be in blank field 'a'.

Answer 1

Correctly indenting your code would have allowed you o spot the error relatively easily - there is an open td element. Either remove the last td from the echo statement in the loop or add additional td pair to first row in table so that they balance ( unless you use colspan attributes )
<style>
.content table tr td{ align:left;padding:5px;color:black;background:white; }
</style>
<div class='content'>
<?php
$sql = 'select `name`, `surname` from `players`';
$response = mysqli_query( $dbc, $sql );
if( $response ) {
echo "
<table align='left' cellspacing='5' cellpadding='8' >
<tr>
<td><b>First Name</b></td>
<td><b>Last Name</b></td>
</tr>";
while( $row = mysqli_fetch_array( $response ) ) {
echo "
<tr>
<td>{$row['imie']}</td>
<td>{$row['nazwisko']}</td>
</tr>";
}
echo "
</table>";
} else {
printf( 'Couldn\'t issue database query: %s', mysqli_error( $dbc ) );
}
mysqli_close( $dbc );
?>
</div>

There is an open <td> tag in your code you should close it before closing the <tr>
