String Manipulation Code challenge

I'm showing it pass in the preview but in check work I get the 'Step 2 is no longer passing' error. I've tried both with and without concatenation on line 7.

I've also tried adding: $fullName .= " was the original creator of PHP"; echo $fullName . "\n";

also- which also passes in preview but returns the same error about Step 2

index.php 
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = "Rasmus";
$lastName = "Lerdorf";
$fullName = $firstName.' '.$lastName;
echo $fullName . " was the original creator of PHP" . "\n";
?>

Hi there! You're doing fine, but at some point you managed to change the variable name from $fullname to $fullName as directed by the instructions on step 2. Note the capitilazition of the "n" vs "N". Because of this, the challenge is failing. If I alter your code to use $fullname instead of $fullName, your code passes the challenge!

Good luck! :sparkles:
