Trail Head Challenge DisplayUserInfo using dynamic global variables

Can anyone suggest a fix? Thanks in advance for your help.
<apex:page showHeader="false">
<apex:pageBlock title="User Status">
<apex:pageBlockSection columns="1">
{! $User.FirstName } {! $User.LastName } ({! $User.Username })
</apex:pageBlockSection>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>

Challenge not yet complete... here's what's wrong: 
The Visualforce page did not fit the criteria. The first name of the logged in user was not output using dynamic global variables.

Remove the spaces from
 
{! $User.FirstName } {! $User.LastName } ({! $User.Username })


to
 
{!$User.FirstName} {!$User.LastName} ({!$User.Username})

and you should be good to go.

Hi William,

It is asking only user's first name.

Challenge: Create a Visualforce page that displays the first name of the logged-in user.
  1. The page must be named 'DisplayUserInfo'.
  2. The displayed user information must be generated dynamically from the logged-in user.

Here's code:


<apex:page >
         {!$User.FirstName}
</apex:page>
