4,060 PointsI need help with echoing multidimensional arrays
I'm trying to echo the content of this multidimensional array , is there any one who can help me Thanks Yassine
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts = array(array('name' => 'Alena Holligan', 'email' => 'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com'),
array('name' => 'Dave McFarland', 'email' => 'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com'),
array('name' => 'Treasure Porth', 'email' => 'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com'),
array('name' => 'Andrew Chalkley', 'email' => 'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com'));
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>" .$contacts[0]["name"]. ":" .$contacts[0]["email"]. "</li>\n";
echo "<li>" .$contacts[1]["name"]. ":" .$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";

"<li>" .$contacts[3]["name"]. " : " .$contacts[3]["email"]. "</li>\n";

15,422 PointsThat looks correct to me. I don't see anything wrong with your code. What kind of error are you getting?

4,060 PointsHi, this is the error message I get when I run the code: "I do not see the required output. You should not be modifying the output at this point." Thanks
