John,
In PHP, variable names are parsed in "-quoted strings.
For example, let $distance = '5 km'.
"<td align='right'>$distance</td>"
becomes
<td align='right'>5 km</td>
or if you're want to double-quote your HTML attributes:
"<td align=\"right\">$distance</td>"
becomes
<td align="right">5 km</td>
Note that variables aren't parsed for '-quoted strings:
'<td align="right">$distance</td>'
becomes
<td align="right">$distance</td>
For more information, see:
