Did not notice; was not looking for them.  Of course if you knew about 
html tables you would know not to put them in there.  A little knowledge 
seems to be the root of all your bugs once again.

You really should read up on HEREDOCS in the php manual.  It will save 
you mucho amounts of typing and confusion when mixing php and html code.

Ex.

$code =<<<heredocs
<tr>
<td>$vara2[$i][0]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][1]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][2]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][3]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][4]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][5]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][6]</td>
<td class="first-col">$vara2[$i][7]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][8]</td>
<td>$vara2[$i][9]</td>
</tr>
heredocs;
echo $code;

This does all that you code does with much less chafe in the code.
