I have no idea to fix this challenge.
<?php
$flavor = 'cookie dough';
$section = null;
echo "<p>Your favorite <?php echo $flavor; ?> of ice cream is ";
echo "vanilla";
echo ".</p>";
echo "<p>Hal's favorite <?php if ($section == $flavor) {echo $flavor;} ?> is cookie dough, also!</p>";
?>

Second, you need to display message, if your favorite ice-creame (stored in $flavor) equals 'cookie dough':
<?php
$flavor = 'vanilla';
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
if ($flavor == 'cookie dough')
{
echo "<p>Hal's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
}
?>
In code, that I've posted above, last string will not be displayed, because my favorite ice-creame is "vanilla", but Hal prefer "cookie dough"

Thank you for your quick answer. I must have misunderstood the challenge completely. The way you have explained it and showed it made it much more clear. Thank you!
