5,552 PointsIt asks me to use "F", and that is exactly what I'm already doing, AND output is correct, but I get a bummer!
I just have to say: Today is (month) (day of the month with leading 0) (comma) (year) and I have the output correctly. Is there something in my program I don't see?
Thanks!
<?php
echo 'Today is ';
//Place your code below this comment
echo date ("F") . ' ' . date ('d') . ',' . ' ' . date('Y');
?>

Since only the third of your date calls have the parenthesis right after the name that is the only one it registers, which is why it complains about you not passing in "F".
Also the date function accepts multiple placeholders being passed to it at once, so you don't need to call it multiple times. If you remove the space before the parenthesis and move all of the placeholders and spaces into just one date call like this:
<?php
echo 'Today is ';
//Place your code below this comment
echo date("F d, Y");
?>
Then your code will pass.
