Faire - subjonctif present - third person plural

Hi, I notice in some text books faire in the subjonctif present - third person plural is spelt fassent and not the same way as done here faissent.  Can both spellings be used?

Wherever it appears as ‘faissent’, a typo/spelling error has been made.

It doesn’t show up as that in the lesson on ‘faire’ here  - correctly shows as ‘fassent’. The external link on that site seems correct too, at least on the first screen shot.

Might be better to report directly if it is from one of the quizzes, as can link to the example.

Conjugate faire in the subjunctive present in French (Le Subjonctif Présent)
