   Hi.

   I have this in my functions.php:
   

   add_shortcode('ataglance', 'ataglance_function');
   function ataglance_function() {
   ?>
   <table>
   <!-- // generate table from xml file -->
   </table>
   <?php
   }

   And this in my page:
   

   test copy
   [ataglance]

   However, the page output (from the_content) is
   

   <table>...</table>
   test copy

   How can I make sure the code is executed in order?

   Thanks

   If anyone has the same problem, the answer is that the contents of the ataglance_function should be returned not echoed.
