8,098 PointsAssociative Arrays - Challenge 3/7
Hello,
The challenge goes like this: Challenge task 3 of 7 By the end of this code challenge, we'll REMOVE from the page all the information about the original movie ("Back to the Future") and REPLACE it with information about the new movie ("The Empire Strikes Back"). Right now, the <h1> element has the title of the original movie as a static piece of text. Replace that with a PHP command that INSTEAD displays the title of the new movie from the array. (Be sure to leave the <h1> tags, the parentheses, and the year intact.)
My solution... <?php $movie = array( "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back" ); ?>
<h1><?php echo $movie("title"); ?> (1985)</h1>
I get Bummer! Try again!.
Please help.

I can't see your html to see if that's ok but you want to use brackets to access the array $movie["title"]

7,556 PointsHi! There i am getting error message on the last Step 7 as below:
"It looks like the rating is displayed in the browser, but the HTML around it does not seem to be correct. Please double-check the spacing and other formatting."
Please help. I can not complete the code and don't know what I am doing wrong either?
here is my code:
<?php $movie = array( "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back", "year" => 1980, "director" => "Irvin Kershner", "imdb_rating" => 8.8, "imdb_ranking" => 11
); ?> <h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; ?> (<?php echo $movie["year"]; ?>)</h1>
<table> <tr> <th>Director</th> <td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td> </tr> <tr> <th>IMDB Rating</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"]; ?> </td> </tr> <tr> <th>IMDB Ranking</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"]; ?></td> </tr> </table>
