Can you see my code?

This 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><?php echo $movie["title"] ?></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>

But I cant pass this code challenge. It's say

Bummer! The name of the director is displayed in the browser, but the HTML around it does not seem to be correct. Please double-check the spacing and other formatting.

I try test in my web browser and its work. I don't know where is the mistake

I think this might be your problem:

<th><?php echo $movie["title"] ?></th>
<td><?php echo $movie["director"] ?></td>

the table header there is supposed to be

<th>Director</th>
<td><?php echo $movie["director"] ?></td>

your other code looks like. below is the code with the necessary change:

<?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>

You changed the line: <th>Director</th> to <th><?php echo $movie["title"] ?></th> , this should have been left unmodified.

Jaks what does it ask you to do? Your code works the only thing I can think of is that it doesn´t show up like this :

Director: Irvin Kershner

<?php

echo "Director: " . $name["director"];

?>

Never mind, For some reason I couldn´t see the whole thing.. Greetings!!
