Hi, where is my mistake?

<?php> $movie = []; ?> <h1>Back to the Future (1985)</h1>

<table> <tr> <th>Director</th> <td>Robert Zemeckis</td> </tr> <tr> <th>IMDB Rating</th> <td>8.5</td> </tr> <tr> <th>IMDB Ranking</th> <td>53</td> </tr> </table>

index.php 
<?php>
  $movie = [];
?>
<h1>Back to the Future (1985)</h1>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td>Robert Zemeckis</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Rating</th>
    <td>8.5</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Ranking</th>
    <td>53</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Hi there, Neven Shtiliyanov! You've got a stray > in the PHP portion that is creating a syntax error.

You typed:

<?php>  // note the extra > on this line  
  $movie = [];
?>

But you meant:

<?php  // remove the >
  $movie = [];
?>

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
