570 PointsWhy does: echo date ('F d\, Y'); not achieve the correct result but when i check it, the output matches the requirement?
I am having trouble understanding what is required as the code I put in matches the required output when run.
<?php
echo 'Today is ' ;
//Place your code below this comment
echo date('F d\, Y');
?>

Which is todays date of writing this, When I run the code that is what is displayed but when I check the result it is incorrect.
