We're getting close! This now displays everything in 2 columns. Ultimately, what I need is a display like this:

Starter Units                     Add-On Units

Item#    Description   Price      Item#    Description   Price
18247C4   --------     $85.89     A18247C4  -------      $76.32
18367C4   --------     $97.37     A18367C4  -------      $82.55

        I got the headers to work with this code:

...
foreach ( $cats AS $cat ) {
                echo '<th align="center">Item ID</th>';
                echo '<th align="center">Description<br />';
                echo '<font size="-1">(Click for more info)</font></th>';
                echo '<th align="center">Price Each</th>';
                echo '<th align="center">Purchase</th>';
}
echo '</tr><tr>';
...

(I don't need to show the category #'s in the header fields) but I can't get the rest of the data to flow like I want it.

Thanks,
Frank
