Note that HTML table tags (e.g. <table>, <tr>, <td>) should be reserved for tabular data. Perhaps one of the solutions found here will help:

You could also consider using CSS grids:

Just be aware that browser support isn't exactly ideal for CSS grids. More information can be found here:

@williamh69 Next time you make a table remember to use <td> not <div> and You need a <tr> in there

	    if($count ==0) {
	         echo"<tr>";
	         }
	

should have been just echo "<tr> No if.

and

<table  border='0' align='center' cellpadding='2' cellspacing='2' width='70%'>

Is totally out of date and  wrong.
