Right now, the three <td> elements have information about the original movie as static pieces of text. Replace each of those with PHP commands that INSTEAD display information about the new movie from the array instead. (Be sure to leave the <td> tags int

Hi GURJAP,

I realize it can be confusing mixing php with html, and there are different ways of doing it, but it's a big part of php. After some practice it will become easier. Below is the code.

Jeff

<?php
$movie = array(
    "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back",
  "year" => 1980,
  "director" => "Irvin Kershner",
  "imdb_rating" => 8.8,
  "imdb_ranking" => 11
);
?>

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; ?> (<?php echo $movie["year"]; ?>)</h1>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Rating</th>
    <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"]; ?></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Ranking</th>
    <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"]; ?></td>
  </tr>
</table>

Also, if you look just below the text box area you will see something that says Markdown Cheetsheet. Also, there is a post here titled: Posting Code to the Forum by Dave McFarland. If you don't understand that maybe this will make sense: How to display code at Treehouse.

Hi Cortney,

I don't see any code related to the question. Below is a snippet of the code.

Jeff

  <tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td>
  </tr>

Hi Cortney,

All you have to do is echo each part of the array instead of leaving the plain text there. Each part of the $movie array can be referenced using the square brackets, followed by the array element in quotation marks. Jeff has done one example for you above.

i typed this in and it is not working

<td> Director <?php echo $movie["director"]; ?> IMDB Rating <?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"]; ?> IMDB Ranking <?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"]; ?> </td>

Cortney,

You are supposed to leave the html intact. I'll give you the first table row.

<tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td>
  </tr>

still not working

Try removing the space at the end of your closing PHP brackets and the closing TD tags.

Cotney,

If you look at my example you will see that there are two table cells (th /th and td /td) per table row (t r /tr). Both th and td are table cells; th is a table-header-cell and td is table-data-cell. In your code example you have at least three table cells in a table row, at least as far as I can see. Yu can see this in the code challenge although it is not indented.

Hope this helps, Jeff

<?php $movie = array( "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back" , "year" => "1980" , "director" =>"Irvin Kershner","imdb_rating"=>"8.8","imdb_ranking"=>"11"); ?>

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; ?> (<?php echo $movie["year"];?>)</h1> <table> <tr> <th>Director</th> <td><?php echo $movie["director"];?></td> <th>IMDB Rating</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"];?></td> <th>IMDB Ranking</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"];?></td> </tr> </table>

why doesn't this work

Here is my code, however I am getting an error "HTML IS NOT QUITE RIGHT"

<?php $movie = array ( title => "The Empire Strikes Back", year => 1980, director => "Irvin Kershner", imdb_rating => 8.8, imdb_ranking => 11

); ?>

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"] ?> (<?php echo $movie["year"] ?>)</h1>

<table> <tr> <th>Director</th> <td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td> </tr>

<tr> <th>IMDB Rating</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"]; ?></td> </tr> <tr> <th>IMDB Ranking</th> <td><?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"]; ?></td> </tr> <tr> </table>

Hi GURJAP,

You have left-out all the html. And in the array, remember that the keys are also strings. You are missing two semicolons.

Jeff

Thank You very Much Jeff. You are the best.

i compared my code and looked exact same but I don't know where I was getting the error. I am happy that I have completed the Stage. Appreciate your help.

<?php $movie = array( "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back", "year" => 1980, "director" => "Irvin Kershner", "imdb_rating" => 8.8, "imdb_ranking" => 11 ); ?>

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"] . $movie["year"]; ?>)</h1>

<table> <?php foreach ($movie as $ key => $val) {

echo "<tr><th>" . $key . "</th><td>" . $val . "</td></tr>"; } ?> </table>

<?php

$movie = [ "title" => "The Empire Strikes Back", "year" => 1980, "director" => "Irvin Kershner", "imdb_rating" => 8.8, "imdb_ranking" => 11, ]; ?>

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"] . $movie["year"]; ?></h1>

<table>

<tr> <th>Director</th>

<td><?php echo $movie["director"]; ?></td>

</tr>

<tr> <th>IMDB Rating</th>

<td><?php echo $movie["imdb_rating"]; ?></td>

</tr>

<tr> <th>IMDB Ranking</th>

<td><?php echo $movie["imdb_ranking"]; ?></td>

</tr>
