if(isset($username)<>$role)

The challenge asks you to check that a $username is set, and to use the negation operator to check if $role is not "admin". If you read out (say to yourself) what you've written, I think you'll figure out the error. Also, make sure to use the proper negation operator (and other operators) that they're looking for in this challenge.

Good luck!
