Hello,
I have no idea what's wrong.... The preview looks good and right but I keep get errors all time.
<?php
include ("flavor.php");
$flavor = get_flavor();
echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is ".$flavor.".";
?>

Your code is correct, but (for some reason) you changed the name in the echo statement from "Hal's" to "Randy's". This is what is giving you the error. The code checker compares your code to a very specific value, so if you change a value that you weren't instructed to, it will throw an error. Just change that name back and you will be good to go.
Also, just a tip. While it isn't necessary, it is good practice to leave spaces around the concatenating periods. This just helps with code readability. Syntactically, both are correct... it's just more common to have spacing.
eg. Instead of
echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is ".$flavor.".";
Have
echo "Randy's favorite flavor of ice cream is " . $flavor . ".";
Keep Coding!
