I believe my code is correct, but it keeps telling my that task 3 is not passing.

Task 3 is just the declaration of the movie's title.

index.php
<?php
  $movie = [];
  $movie["title"] = "The Empire Strikes Back";
  $movie["year"] = 1980;
?>

<h1>
  <?php echo $movie["title"];?>
  <?php echo $movie["year"];?>
</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! You're doing really well, but the problem here lies in what you're echoing out in the <h1> element. When they say to leave the title and year intact they mean the original formatting including the parentheses around the year. Take a look:

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"] . "(" . $movie["year"] . ")"; ?></h1>

This will echo out The Empire Strikes Back (1980).

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
