Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 22,885 PointsI don't know what to do?!!
When I reassign the full name variable task 2 is no longer passing and when I change it I get "you didn't you the full name variable"
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullname = $firstName . " " . $lastName;
$fullname .= " was the original creator of PHP\n";
echo $fullname;
?>

65,469 PointsYou're close! You should be adding the rest of the message in the $fullname variable, though.
You aren't supposed to add on the message to the variable. You just need to concatenate when echoing, like this:
<?php
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullname = $firstName . " " . $lastName;
echo $fullname . " was the original creator of PHP\n";
?>
I hope this helps
Good luck coding
