You're misunderstanding the directions. You should be creating a variable name $fullName, and assigning it the result of the two variables $firstName & $lastName concatenated, which would be a full name. Don't forget that formatting is important as well, so the two should be separated by a space.

<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$firstName='Rasmus';
$lastName='Lerdorf';
//Create a third variabl named fullname and assigned it to the values of $firstName and $lastName together
$fullname = $firstName . " " . $lastName;

?>
