<?php
//edit this array
$contacts = array('Alena Holligan', 'Dave McFarland', 'Treasure Porth', 'Andrew Chalkley');
$contacts = array(

$contacts[][]
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li> ".$contacts[0]['name']." :". $contacts[0]['email']."</li>\n";
echo "<li> ".$contacts[1]['name']." :". $contacts[1]['email']."</li>\n";

Courses Plus Student 3,206 PointsHey , you have an syntax error.
$contacts[][] <-------- here is the problem in your code delete this line.
I also delete the first line
$contacts = array('Alena Holligan', 'Dave McFarland', 'Treasure Porth', 'Andrew Chalkley');
because you create the array again .
Here the working code :-)
$contacts = array(
array ('name'=> 'Alena Holligan' ,'email'=>'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com' ),
array ('name'=> 'Dave McFarland' ,'email'=>'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com'),
array ('name'=> 'Treasure Porth','email'=>'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com'),
array ('name'=> 'Andrew Chalkley','email'=> 'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com')
);
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>".$contacts[0]['name']." : ". $contacts[0]['email']."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[1]['name']." : ". $contacts[1]['email']."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[2]['name']." : ". $contacts[2]['email']."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[3]['name']." : ". $contacts[3]['email']."</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
