Why is it I am getting the earlier array?

Here is my code

'<?php

define("YEAR", 2014);
define ("JOB_TITLE", "Teacher");
define ("MAX_BADGES", 150000);

$name = "Mike";
$location="Orlando, FL"; 
$full_name="Mike the Frog";
$name=$full_name;
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset=utf-8>
    <title> <h1>M<?php echo $name ?> </h1> | Treehouse Profile</title>
    <link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <section class="sidebar text-center">
      <div class="avatar">
        <img src="img/avatar.png" alt="Mike The Frog">
      </div>
      <h1><?php echo $name ?> </h1>
      <p> <?php echo $location ?>  </p>
      <hr />
      <p>Welcome to PHP Basics!</p>

      <ul class="social">
        <li><a href=""><span class="icon twitter"></span></a></li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <section class="main">
      <pre>
<?php

  $a = 10
  $b = 10

  $sum =$a + $b;
  $diff = $a - $b;
$product = $a * $b;
$qoutient = $a / $b;
  ?> </pre>

      <ul>
      <li> <?php echo $sum ?>   </li>
      <li> <?php echo $diff ?> </li>
      <li> <?php echo $product ?> </li>
        <li><?php echo $diff ?>  </li>
      </ul>

    </section>
  </body>
</html>'

Why am I getting the earlier array? I've cleared my cache.

I assume you're working on this code in a workspace? Have you saved the change to your file? Tried closing the preview and clicking the preview button?

Also, are you sure you've cleared your cache successfully? Try opening the workspace from another browser.

You're not printing out any arrays, so I am not sure why this would be happening. Is that your entire index.php file?

Benjamin,

I believe in this course, the students are asked to print those arrays in the prior video. Pat has changed his code from that to the above, and is still seeing the old page. Almost certainly a browser caching issue or a workspace saving issue.

Greg,

I have to agree. Its been awhile since I went through these videos.

Pat, let me know if you still need help with this.
