$rows[] = array('Value4Row2', 'Value5Row2', 'Value6Row2');
$rows[] = array('Value7Row2', 'Value8Row2', 'Value9Row3');
print theme('table', array('header' => $header, 'rows' => $rows));
?>Display table with border=1
<?php
theme('table', array('header' => $header, 'rows' => $rows, 'attributes' => array('border' => 1)));

);
