Ok Well have you checked thant you have a <table> at top and </table> at
bottom of the code you've send us ?

Ok. I think it's cause you missed the . or , before and after $formatted.
Like at the second line : "blablabla".$something."blablabla";
It's for echoing the text, then the value of the variable, then text agin.
It works with both . and ,
Try to do : echo "<td>",$formatted,'</td></tr><br>";

the source of the page by your browser and see the diffrence)

It's juste to produce "nice looking" source html code.
