Displaying php inside html table

Long story short. Our Wordpress imports data via xml and here is the PHP code to view the output:

<?php
// check if the flexible content field has rows of data
if( have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id()) ):

   // loop through the rows of data
  while ( have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id()) ) : the_row();
                              the_sub_field('category');
                              the_sub_field('item_name');
                              the_sub_field('value');
                              the_sub_field('status');
                                    //add more field you desire here

  endwhile;

else :

  // no layouts found

endif;
?>

Unfortunately, the data imported is unpresentable, I was wondering if there is a way to have the PHP output for "the sub fields" in a table format such as the one below.

<table style="border-color: #396833; border-width: 1px; width: 90%; border-style: solid; background-color: #fefefe;" border="1" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="2" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="text-align: center;">
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Category</span></p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
<p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;">Item</span></p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr class="tablerow1">
<td style="text-align: center; background-color: #92c38e;">
<p><span style="font-size: medium; color: #ffffff;">Value</span></p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr class="tablerow1">
<td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
<p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;">Status</span></p>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

So, in other words, I need the correct way to insert the PHP in the HTML table.

You would just need to echo HTML alongside your field values inside the while loop. For example, you could do something along the lines of:

<?php

if (have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id())) {
    echo '
        <table>
            <thead>
                <tr>
                    <th>Category</th>
                    <th>Item Name</th>
                    <th>Value</th>
                    <th>Status</th>
                </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
    ';

    while (have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id())) {
        echo '
            <tr>
                <td>'.htmlentities(get_sub_field('category')).'</td>
                <td>'.htmlentities(get_sub_field('item_name')).'</td>
                <td>'.htmlentities(get_sub_field('value')).'</td>
                <td>'.htmlentities(get_sub_field('status')).'</td>
            </tr>
        ';
    }

    echo '
            </tbody>
        </table>
    ';
}

?>

Not sure if I understood correctly but I guess you are looking for something like this: 

<table style="border-color: #396833; border-width: 1px; width: 90%; border-style: solid; background-color: #fefefe;" border="1" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="2" align="center">
<thead>
<tr>
    <td style="text-align: center;">
        <p><span style="font-size: medium;">Category</span></p>
    </td>
    <td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
        <p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;">Item</span></p>
    </td>
    <td style="text-align: center; background-color: #92c38e;">
        <p><span style="font-size: medium; color: #ffffff;">Value</span></p>
    </td>
    <td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
        <p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;">Status</span></p>
    </td>
</tr>
</thead>
<?php
// check if the flexible content field has rows of data
if( have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id()) ): ?>
  <tbody>
      <?php $count = 0;
      while ( have_rows('epigenetics', 'user_'.get_current_user_id()) ) : the_row(); 
        $count++; ?>
        <tr class="tablerow<?php echo $count; ?>">
            <td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
                <p><span style="font-size: medium;"><?php  the_sub_field('category'); ?></span></p>
            </td>
            <td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
                <p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;"><?php the_sub_field('item_name'); ?></span></p>
            </td>
            <td style="text-align: center; background-color: #92c38e;">
                <p><span style="font-size: medium; color: #ffffff;"><?php the_sub_field('value'); ?></span></p>
            </td>                     
            <td style="background-color: #92c38e; text-align: center;">
                <p><span style="color: #ffffff; font-size: medium;"><?php the_sub_field('status'); ?></span></p>
            </td>     
      <?php endwhile; ?>
  </tbody> 
<?php else :

endif;
?>
</table>
