In the code challenge about concatenation. First I put the $lastName = "Frog";
$fullName = $firstName . "" . $middleName . "" . $lastName;
This is wrong.Why??
<?php
$firstName = "Mike";
$middleName = "the";
$lastName = "Frog";
$fullName = $firstName . "" . $middleName . "" . $lastName;
echo "The designer at Shirts 4 Mike shirts is named ___";
?>

Add your spaces into your concatenation (hint: " " instead of "") and it should be good.

I think is because you have no space between the name.
For example:
$fullName = $firstName . " " . $middleName . " " . $lastName;
you see the space between each variable.
