Understanding Whitespace Code Issue

Hi all,

Something in my code below is causing the the shirt images from the PHP lesson Understanding Whitespace to format improperly. Where's my error at? Did I make a mistake when concatenating $product img and $product name?

$products[101] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Red",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-101.jpg",
    "price" => 18   
);
$products[102] = array(
    "name" => "Mike the Frog Shirt, Black",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-102.jpg",
    "price" => 20
);
$products[103] = array(
    "name" => "Mike the Frog Shirt, Blue",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-103.jpg",    
    "price" => 20
);
$products[104] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Green",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-104.jpg",    
    "price" => 18
);
$products[105] = array(
    "name" => "Mike the Frog Shirt, Yellow",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-105.jpg",    
    "price" => 25
);
$products[106] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Gray",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-106.jpg",    
    "price" => 20
);
$products[107] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Turquoise",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-107.jpg",    
    "price" => 20
);
$products[108] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Orange",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-108.jpg",    
    "price" => 25,
);

?><?php $pageTitle = "Mike's Full Catalog of Shirts"; 
$section = "shirts"; 
include('inc/header.php'); ?>

    <div class="section shirts page">

        <div class="wrapper">

            <h1>Mike&rsquo;s Full Catalog of Shirts</h1>

            <ul class="products">
                <?php foreach($products as $product) {
                        echo "<li";
                        echo '<a href="#">';
                        echo '<img src="' . $product["img"] . '" alt="' . $product["name"] . '">';
                        echo "<p>View Details</p>";
                        echo "</a>";
                        echo "</li";
                    } 
                ?>
            </ul>

        </div>

    </div>




<?php include('inc/footer.php'); ?>```

You're missing the closing > for your start and end <li> tags.

You've got 

echo "<li";
...
echo "</li";

It should be 

echo "<li>";
...
echo "</li>";

Mark's comment about the extra comma is also a problem in the code.

$products[108] = array(
    "name" => "Logo Shirt, Orange",
    "img" => "img/shirts/shirt-108.jpg",    
    "price" => 25, // Remove the ","
);
