I have an echo statement that I use in conjunction with a MySQL

This works perfectly fine. However, I will be using the same code
numerous times on the page and wanted to stuff it all into a
variable. At this point I can't remember the proper syntax and
quoting to get this right. Any takers?

You could always make it a function...ie:
function drawTableRow($sqlRow) {
return "<tr>\n<td class=\"tabletext\">". $sqlRow['time'] ."</

Simplified for
time purposes.

Good suggestion. I like heredoc's clean presentation:
__________________________________
function drawTableRow($sqlrow)
{
return <<<_
<tr>
<td class="tabletext">{$sqlrow['time']}</td>
<td class="tabletext">{$sqlrow['field']}</td>
<td class="tabletext">{$sqlrow['division']}</td>
</tr>
_;
}

By the way, if every cell in every row is class "tabletext" why
have a class at all? You could simply apply the desired styles to
the td element.

I'm using heredoc elsewhere on the page so that's a good idea.
As far as the CSS on the <td>, other cells in the table have
different styling.
