As a developer, you'll spend a lot of time in the documentation. For this code challenge, you'll need to check out the documentation for the date function to see details about formatting.
Use a SINGLE date function to display today's date in the message. Use the following format: full month, day of the month with leading 0, comma and 4 digit year.
Example: Today is July 04, 2016
where am i going wrong
<?php
echo 'Today is' . date ("F d, Y");
//Place your code below this comment
?>

12,577 PointsHi Edmond you are almost there just take not of the instructions you are to place your code below the comment line so you will need another echo as indicated below:
<?php
echo 'Today is ';
//Place your code below this comment
echo date("F d, Y");
?>
happy coding.

I've run into the same issues as you going through Treehouse. Basically, it wants you to follow it to the T even if there is a easier/better way to do it.
