Try this (not tested, you may have to adjust it)
<?php
$received = 12;
echo '<table>';
$count = 1;
while ($count <= $received) {
if (($count % 5) == 1) echo '<tr>';
echo "<td>$count</td>";
if (($count % 5) == 0) echo '</tr>';
++$count;
}
if (($count % 5) != 1) { // generate empty cells
while ($count++ % 5) echo '<td> </td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
