Why can't I get a long table across pages from tabularray using the example?

Question

I hope to make a long table across pages by tabularray package. First, I need to understand the example on page 36 of the book. When I tested it, it showed weird:

The code:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabularray}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{ninecolors}
\UseTblrLibrary{booktabs, siunitx}
\begin{document}
 \begin{table}[hbt!]
\NewTblrTheme{fancy}{
 \SetTblrStyle{firsthead}{font=\bfseries}
 \SetTblrStyle{firstfoot}{fg=blue2}
 \SetTblrStyle{middlefoot}{\itshape}
 \SetTblrStyle{caption-tag}{red2}
}
\begin{longtblr}[
 theme = fancy,
 caption = {A Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Table},
 entry = {Short Caption},
 label = {tblr:test},
 note{a} = {It is the first footnote.},
 note{$\dag$} = {It is the second long long long long long long footnote.},
 remark{Note} = {Some general note. Some general note. Some general note.},
 remark{Source} = {Made up by myself. Made up by myself. Made up by myself.},
]{
 colspec = {XXX}, width = 0.85\linewidth,
 rowhead = 2, rowfoot = 1,
 row{odd} = {gray9}, row{even} = {brown9},
 row{1-2} = {purple7}, row{Z} = {blue7},
}

It can extended to multiple tables if you remove \begin{table} environment

Updated

final code:

Also take a look here: Make a table span multiple pages

Yes. You are right. Sometimes it needs \begin{table}, sometimes not. I should be careful. — Y. zeng, Apr 14 '22 at 07:13
May you teach me how to change characters continued on next page to see next page and 'continuedtohere` in that table? — Y. zeng, Apr 14 '22 at 07:17
I updated the answer to include that as well. You should change table template — Mutaz Jaber, Apr 14 '22 at 07:26
