Associative Arrays - First, add a PHP code block above the HTML that creates an empty PHP array named movie

Hi guys,

Having difficulty getting past the above code challenge (Task 1) Where am I going wrong? My code looks like this....

<? php 
$movie = array ();
?>

<h1>Back to the Future (1985)</h1>

  <table>
  <tr>
  <th>Director</th>
  <td>Robert Zemeckis</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
  <th>IMDB Rating</th>
  <td>8.5</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
  <th>IMDB Ranking</th>
 <td>53</td>
  </tr>
    </table>
?>

You need to remove the whitespace between the 'array' and '();'

This worked for me:

<?php 
$movie = array();
?>
<h1>Back to the Future (1985)</h1>
<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td>Robert Zemeckis</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Rating</th>
    <td>8.5</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Ranking</th>
    <td>53</td>
  </tr>
</table>```

I found the last ending tag for php unnecessary.
