Table ID in PHP - php

Question

I'm trying to assign anID to the table I'm generating with PHP but it keeps returning an error. Here is the full code that works fine so far. All I want is to add an 'id' to the table so I can apply css styles to it in the relevant sheet
<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost","<un>","<pw>","monitor");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
$result = mysqli_query($con,"SELECT * FROM presnationalresults ORDER BY Percentage DESC");
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>President</th>
<th>Party</th>
<th>Votes</th>
<th>Percentage</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['PresidentName'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['PartyCode'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Votes'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Percentage'] . "</td>";
}
echo "</table>";
mysqli_close($con);
Any help? maybe I'm going about it the wrong way?

Please try below block of code . I have added table id and also close </tr> inside while loop
<?php
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost", "<un>", "<pw>", "monitor");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
$result = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT * FROM presnationalresults ORDER BY Percentage DESC");
echo "<table border='1' id='table-id'>
<tr>
<th>President</th>
<th>Party</th>
<th>Votes</th>
<th>Percentage</th>
</tr>";
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['PresidentName'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['PartyCode'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Votes'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Percentage'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>"; // you forget close tr
}
echo "</table>";
mysqli_close($con);
