14,943 PointsVague Error
The error just says Try Again. Any ideas? If I modify the echo statements at the bottom, I get an error stating not to modify the output yet.
<?php
// In the code below, we have a simple array of contact names.
// We want to use the $contacts array to fill in the hardcoded list of names an email addresses.
// To hold the email as well as the name for each contact, we need a multidimensional array,
// meaning each person in the contact list will have their own array. The first step is to make each person
// their own single item ASSOCIATIVE array, using 'name' as the key for these internal arrays.
//edit this array
//$contacts = array('Alena Holligan', 'Dave McFarland', 'Treasure Porth', 'Andrew Chalkley');
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Alena Holligan'
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Dave McFarland'
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Treasure Porth'
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Andrew Chalkey'
];
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>Alena Holligan : alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Dave McFarland : dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Treasure Porth : treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Andrew Chalkley : andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";

14,943 PointsThanks Ken Stone. Now I'm stuck at part 3. I checked around stack overflow, but the solutions revolve around the each() function which seems overly complicated for this part. Feel free to answer that one too.
