I tried it using IDE and it seems like it's working fine for me. But the tree house editor window is still showing me error. I am not able to figure it out. Help me out.

Challenge task 4 of 5 Now add a new String array to strings.xml named 'phoneNumbers'. Give it three items: "Home", "Work”" and "Mobile".

Syntax: <string-array name="...."> <item>...</item> <item>...</item> <item>...</item> </string-array>

<string-array name="phoneNumbers">
    <item>Home</item>
    <item>Work</item>
    <item>Mobile</item>
</string-array>

It should be like this.

Hasan,

Your "It should be like this" answer confused me (???) because I used it OUTSIDE (below) the Resource tags and it didn't pass.

So for clarification, this is the FULL strings.xml code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
  <string name="saveLabel">Save My Changes</string>
  <string-array name="phoneNumbers">
    <item>Home</item>
    <item>Work</item>
    <item>Mobile</item>
  </string-array>
</resources>
