noindex code

Hello everyone,

I don't get why my code does not work for this question. "use the proper noindex code to make sure search engines don't display it within search results". I have put it in the right place I think (head-section)?

index.html 
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>Star Wars Merchandise</title>
  <meta name="description" content="Shirts and hats for fans of Star Wars">
  <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Star Wars Merchandise</h1>
  <p>Shirts and hats for fans of Star Wars</p>
  <h2>Boba Fett Shirts</h2>
  <p>Available in white; sizes S-M-L-XL</p>
  <p>Darth Maul Hat</p>
  <p>Available in black or white at <a href="http://hats.com">Hats.com</a></p>
</body>
</html>

Maybe try a nofollow too: <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
