For some reason it is modifying my original code which is <?php
$contacts[] = array('name' => 'Alena Holligan', 'email' => 'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com'); $contacts[] = array('name' => 'Dave McFarland', 'email' => 'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com'); $contacts[] = array('name' => 'Treasure Porth', 'email' => 'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com'); $contacts[] = array('name' => 'Andrew Chalkley', 'email' => 'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com');
echo "<ul>\n"; //$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names. echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . ":" .$contacts[0]['email'] . "</li>\n"; echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . ":" .$contacts[0]['email'] ."</li>\n"; echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . ":" .$contacts[0]['email'] . "</li>\n"; echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . ":" .$contacts[0]['email']. "</li>\n"; echo "</ul>\n";
?>

Sometimes the error message do not accurately indicate where the problem is, and in this challenge, pasting code from the final completed challenge into a fresh reloaded version won't even allow it to pass the first task.
You're code was not far off, however. There were two things I found that you needed to change-
- Add spaces before and after the
":"
in between the names and email addresses. - Modify your references to the
contacts[0]
to change with each respective user (contacts[1]
,contacts[2]
, etc.)

5,486 PointsThanks ben, I actually had the numbered keys originally but forgot to change them when posting this question, but had overlooked the spaces between the colons. I realized after submitting this that there is a separate support contact for bugs, which I was trying to report originally. Thanks for taking the time to respond though
