Bummer?

when I preview code everything looks good, stil I can not get further to the next step. :(

index.php 
<?php 

$names = array('Mike', 'Chris', 'Jane', 'Bob');

foreach($names as $name){
  echo "<li>" . $name . "</li>";             
}

?>

Hi I got this to work;

$names = array('Mike', 'Chris', 'Jane', 'Bob');

foreach ($names as $name){
  echo "$name <br />";
}

?>

This works as it echos one name, and then skips to the new line. Hope this helps.

on thing to remember when doing the challenges is that they are very rigid. The second part of the challenge just wants you to echo the array, so all you have to do is echo the $names variable, when you add more to the challenge they sometimes mark it wrong.
