PHP PHP Basics PHP on the Web Date Function

The programming quiz says that I forgot the echo command every time I check my work, but it works in preview. Why?

My code works as expected in preview but when I compile it, it says that I forgot the echo command. Do I need to echo in a specific format when working with the date function?

index.php
<?php
echo "Today is ".date("F d, Y");
//Place your code below this comment

?>

Hi Steven,

It wants you to echo the date separately below the comment. You'll have 2 echo statements total.

Thank you very much, I appreciate it.
