1,300 PointsGreetings, Im stuck in this part of the exercise, how do i manage to add the email value? i tried adding another echo...
I tried adding another echo with the email value of the array and it seems thats not the right answer, i tried a couple of other things but it seems im not getting the right one, so im not really sure what am i missing to get the email value
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts[]= [
"name"=> 'Alena Holligan',
"email"=> 'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[] = [
"name" =>'Dave McFarland',
"email" =>'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[] = [
"name" =>'Treasure Porth',
"email" =>'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com',
];
$contacts[] = [
"name" =>'Andrew Chalkley',
"email" =>'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com',
];
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo $contacts[0]["name"];
echo $contacts[1]["name"];
echo $contacts[2]["name"];
echo $contacts[3]["name"];
echo "</ul>\n";

echo "<li>" . $contacts[0]['name'] . " : " . $contacts[0]['email'] . "</li>\n";

2,782 PointsIt's so beautiful and good, but less is more. :) What happens is what you want to achieve. I can write the data of the array together. The keys will increase in the same way. Generating data dumps is easier. With these practices, you can work faster.
<?php
$contacts = [
[
"name" => 'Alena Holligan',
"email" => 'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com',
],
[
"name" =>'Treasure Porth',
"email" =>'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com'
],
[
"name" =>'Andrew Chalkley',
"email" =>'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com'
]
];
?>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($contacts as $contactValue) : ?>
<li><?php echo sprintf('%s : %s', $contactValue['name'], $contactValue['email']); ?></li>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
