4,282 PointsWhat multi-dimensional array format should I use?
Do not know the format the exercise is looking for.
Used format the video is using and several variations without success.
<?php
//edit this array
//$contacts = array('Alena Holligan', 'Dave McFarland', 'Treasure Porth', 'Andrew Chalkley');
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Alena holligan',
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Dave McFarland',
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Treasure Porth',
];
$contacts[] = [
'name' => 'Andrew Chalkley',
];
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>Alena Holligan : alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Dave McFarland : dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Treasure Porth : treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "<li>Andrew Chalkley : andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";

24,141 PointsYou have to use it like below:
$contacts = array( ['name' => 'some Name', 'email' => 'some Email'], ['name' => 'some Name', 'email' => 'some Email'], ['name' => 'some Name', 'email' => 'some Email'], ['name' => 'some Name', 'email' => 'some Email'], );
