After submitting my code for Challenge Task 2 of 3. I get the following response "Bummer! $fullName should equal Rasmus Lerdof"
If I change my $lastName variable to "Lerdof", task 1 will no longer be correct.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$firstName = 'Rasmus';
$lastName = 'Lerdorf';
$fullName = "$firstName $lastName";
?>

$fullname = $firstName. ' ' . $lastName;

10,859 PointsIvan Penchev - The issue have been fixed, and my code worked perfectly fine. Thanks for the answer through =)
edit: Why'd I use a different concatication method? Will my method not hold up in certain situations?

13,833 PointsAlexander Lawaetz it is not an "technology issue", its your code, so it cant be fixed by itself. You use a variable $fullname, such variable does not exist in your scope.
Your solution is slower, than mine, due to the way C# interpreting.
