According to the work preview this code should be working just fine, but i still get "bummers" anyone knows whats wrong with this code?
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Alena Holligan", "email" => "alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Dave McFarland", "email" => "dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Treasure Porth", "email" => "treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Andrew Chalkley", "email" => "andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com"];
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<ul>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[0] ["name"] . " " . $contacts[0] ["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[1] ["name"] . " " . $contacts[1] ["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[2] ["name"] . " " . $contacts[2] ["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[3] ["name"] . " " . $contacts[3] ["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
?>

1st the issue was the space between the outer and inner indexes. normally it works with the space. 2nd **the colon between name and email.
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Alena Holligan", "email" => "alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Dave McFarland", "email" => "dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Treasure Porth", "email" => "treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com"];
$contacts[] = ["name" => "Andrew Chalkley", "email" => "andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com"];
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<ul>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]["name"] . " : " . $contacts[0]["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[1]["name"] . " : " . $contacts[1]["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[2]["name"] . " : " . $contacts[2]["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" . $contacts[3]["name"] . " : " . $contacts[3]["email"] . "</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
