<th>Author</th>
<th>Quotes</th>

    <?php while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { ?>
        <tr>
            <td width="150"><?php h($row['vAuthor']) ?></td>
            <td><?php h($row['cQuotes']) ?></td>
            <td><?php h($row['cArabic']) ?></td>
            <td><?php h($row['vReference']) ?></td>
        </tr>
    <?php } ?>

</div></div>

Answer 1

You can do this and it'll still be semantic:

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Header</th>
    <td>content</td>
    <td>content</td>
    <td>content</td>
  </tr>
</table>
