Widget Code Fails

[rcull]

I have a bit of code which works well in most places, but I would like it to work in my vb cms widgets. It seems beyond me to get it to work, but maybe someone would like to tell me what is wrong.

I have managed to get it work with an iframe in the widget, but the presentation is poor.

PHP Code:

    <?php
echo '<table class="alt1" border="1" bgcolor="fffceb" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="220">
    <tr><td colspan="4"><u>WANTED ADS</u><br />from the <i>Team Classifieds</i>...</td></tr>
    <tr>';

    $mysql_link = mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");
       mysql_select_db ("teambuic_forums");
       if(!$mysql_link){
         print("Did not connect to database<br>");
         exit;
       }
    function cl_get_ext( $filename ) {
        return substr($filename, strrpos($filename,"."));
    }

    $result = mysql_query('SELECT p.id, p.cat, p.user, p.userid, p.bigimage, p.title FROM ppc_products p WHERE p.cat=\'58\' OR p.cat=\'59\' OR p.cat=\'60\' OR p.cat=\'61\' OR p.cat=\'62\' ORDER BY RAND() DESC LIMIT 0, 4');
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_NUM))
                {
               $photo = $row[4];
               $photolen = strlen($photo);
               $theext = cl_get_ext($photo);
               $photo_name = str_replace( $theext, "", $photo );

          echo '  <tr><td><center><a href=http://www.teambuick.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product='.$row[0].'>'.           
                   '<br>'.$row[5].
                   '</a><br><b>'.$row[2].'</b><br></center></td>
    ';
             } 


   echo '</tr>
</table>';
    ?>
