How to line break when I foreach a php array?

Question

I have an array with a reference, a price and a quantity in an array. I have a foreach set in a html table, and I would like a line break after each quantity but I can't make it work.

 if (isset($_SESSION["buy"])) :
        $cart = $_SESSION["buy"];
    endif;

 if (!empty($_POST["quantity"])) :
     array_push($cart, $_POST['ref']);
     array_push($cart, $_POST['price']);
     array_push($cart, $_POST["quantity"]);
     $_SESSION["buy"] = $cart;
 endif;




<table>
    <thead>Your order</thead>
        <tr>
            <td>Ref</td>
            <td>Price</td>
            <td>Quantity</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <?php foreach ($cart as $row => $data) : ?>
                <td>
                    <?php echo $data; ?>
                </td>
            <?php endforeach; ?>
        </tr>
   </table>

Whatever I try, the result will only be a single column or row. How can I force it to line break after each $data(quantity)

let me see the result of <?php echo $data; ?>

Firstly, it would help that when you store the details, you store them together - at the moment you are mixing all the details in the same array...

 if (!empty($_POST["quantity"])) :
     array_push($cart, $_POST['ref']);
     array_push($cart, $_POST['price']);
     array_push($cart, $_POST["quantity"]);
     $_SESSION["buy"] = $cart;
 endif;

I would suggest an associative array with the details of each item in the same element of $cart...

 if (!empty($_POST["quantity"])) {
     array_push($cart,["ref" => $_POST['ref'], 
                "price" =>$_POST['price'] 
                "quantity" => $_POST["quantity"]);
     $_SESSION["buy"] = $cart;
 }

Then to display the results, echo each line in it's own <tr> tags with each item in a <td> , you could also apply formatting to each item according to what you need...

foreach ( $cart as $item ) {
     echo "<tr><td>{$item[ref]}</td><td>{$item[price]}</td><td>{$item[quantity])</td></tr>";
}
