I think my answer is true

Question

I've made preview and saw the return like the answer required but there is message said that "looks like you forgot echo command"
```index.php
<?php //Place your code below this comment
$today = date("F d, Y");
echo 'Today is '. $today ;
?>
```

Hi there! Yes, your code produces the same result as what is expected.  However, there was a comment in the original code that asks you to place your code below.  This means that you may not alter the code above that comment, which is what has happened here.  It expected the original echo statement to stay exactly as it was.
Instead, it wanted you to add an additional echo statement.
```php
<?php echo 'Today is ';
//Place your code below this comment
echo date("F d, Y");
?>
```
:bulb: Going forward through these challenges it's important to try not to alter anything that they haven't explicitly asked you to alter.  If the challenge says to put your code below a certain line, leave everything above it as is.  Even if functional outside the challenge, it can break the challenge as it is no longer getting the exact code it is looking for.
Hope this helps! :sparkles:
