No p tag or ;

It's also good form to put a space between the semi-colon and the closing question mark tag. The computer doesn't care, but it makes it a bit easier to read for us peoples. :-)

That's the answer. Do not use the html paragraph tag those are not needed it's asking you to print hello world. In php echo is print.
