I've been noticing an issue with the help box. Maybe send an email to help@teamtreehouse.com with a description of the problem.
As for your code, it looks correct, but without seeing the challenge/quiz it's tougher to trouble shoot. If you can't get the "get help" to work, just copy the url from the quiz and paste it here in a comment and I will check it out for you.

The question is: "Create An Empty Array Named $colors.". That should be $colors = array(); ?

You're close. To create an empty array in PHP, the code checker is looking for:
$colors = [];
Keep Coding! :)
