This is what i have to do:
By the end of this code challenge, we'll REMOVE from the page all the information about the original movie ("Back to the Future") and REPLACE it with information about the new movie ("The Empire Strikes Back"). Right now, the <h1> element has the title of the original movie as a static piece of text. Replace that with a PHP command that INSTEAD displays the title of the new movie from the array. (Be sure to leave the <h1> tags, the parentheses, and the year intact.)
And this is the code i have...
<?php
$movie = array(
"title" => "The Empire Strikes Back"
);
?>
<h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; (1985)</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>
keeps telling me to check the () and the Year but i havent make any changes to it, and even if i create a new element inside the array something like "year" => 1985 and try to echo it inside the () keep getting error.

33,072 PointsOk it looks correct.
Check your first post, maybe is different the code you showed. Post it again (but with code visible ;) ) so we can compare.
Anthony Gomez
Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 10,089 Pointsi no longer have the original or first sorry :P, but still thanks a lot somehow i manage to do it right this time.
Dario Morbidi
33,072 PointsYou wrote here in the forum in the first post, just was not so visible: for example i didn't see the closing php statement "?>".
