Make a simple PHP Application - Stage 2 - Code Challenge Problem

When I complete question 3 of the code challenge, I have to change my favorite flavor of ice cream to something other than randy's flavor. Then in question 4 I need to change it back to the same value, but it says

**Oops!** It looks like Task 3 is no longer passing!

index.php 
<?php

echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
$flavor = 'cookie dough'; 
$randysFlavor = 'cookie dough';
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
echo "<p>Randy's favorite flavor is ";
echo $randysFlavor; 
if ($flavor == $randysFlavor) 
{ 
  echo ", too!"; 
} 
else 
{ 
  echo "."; 
}
echo "</p>";
?>

i suggest you start from the beginning.. dont change anything unless they specifically tell you too. You have changed so many things, it's no wonder why..

if re-doing it from task1 doesnt help, post back and i will post some hints

I did it again and did exactly what they said to do and it didn't work - but on my third try it worked. Not really sure why though.
