jQuery show div in PHP While loop - php

Question

I am having a bit of problems trying to show an information in a div tag using jQuery inside the PHP while loop.
My code looks like this:
$i=1;
while($pack = mysql_fetch_array($packs))
{
$pricepack = $price * $pack['refcount'];
$pricepack = number_format($pricepack,2);
if($users > $pack['refcount'] ) {
$contents .= "
<a class='refbutton' style='text-decoration:none;' onclick=\"document.rent.refs.value='{$pack['refcount']}';document.rent.submit(); return false;\" >{$pack['refcount']}</a>
<div id='refinfo' style='display:none;'>
<span style='font-size:18pt;font-weight:bold;' id='refprice'></span><br />
<span style='color:#D01F1E;'>You don't have enough funds for this package.</span>
</div>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.refbutton').hover(
function() {
$('#refinfo').show();
$('#refprice').text(\"$\"+\"$pricepack\");
},
function() {
$('#refinfo').hide()
}
);
});
</script>
";
$i++;
}
}
The problem is that the code is generating a div next to each anchor element. This will cause this when the mouse hovers:
What I am trying to obtain is this on every button hover:
As you can see in the second picture, there isn't any design errors or mix-ups. How can I obtain this?
Thank you.

You need to start by cleaning up your code. You only need one refinfo div, and only one javascript block. The only thing in your loop should be the refbutton, and that tag should contain all the values needed for the javscript hover and click events to do their business. Look into HTML5 custom data attributes http://html5doctor.com/html5-custom-data-attributes/
Something more like this should work and provide a sounder basis on which to debug layout issues if any remain.
<?php
$i=1;
while($pack = mysql_fetch_array($packs)) {
$pricepack = $price * $pack['refcount'];
$pricepack = number_format($pricepack,2);
if($users > $pack['refcount'] ) {
$contents .= "
<a class=\"refbutton\" data-pricepack=\"{$pricepack}\" style=\"text-decoration:none;\" >{$pack['refcount']}</a>";
$i++;
}
}
?>
<div id="refinfo" style="display:none;">
<span style="font-size:18pt;font-weight:bold;" id="refprice"></span><br />
<span style="color:#D01F1E;">You don't have enough funds for this package.</span>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.refbutton')
.bind('mouseover',function(event) {
$('#refinfo').show();
$('#refprice').text($(this).data("pricepack"));
})
.bind('click',function(event) {
document.rent.refs.value=$(this).text();
})
.bind('mouseout', function(event){
$('#refinfo').hide();
})
;
});
</script>
