RE: [PHP] highlight_string()

Hi I found an example for this on WeberDev and got it to work pretty good. However, when I started to check, I now have a different issue. Till now, I just highlighted all of the text. Now I take the php code Out, highlight only the php code and put it back in. The problem is that I'm looking for anything between <? And ?> And some of the code examples have <?..... <?xml..... ?>.....?> So what I really take out is <?..... <?xml..... ?> How can I avoid this? thanks -----Original Message----- From: chris smith [mailto:dmagick@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, March 10, 2006 1:19 PM To: Weber Sites LTD Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] highlight_string() On 3/10/06, Weber Sites LTD <berber@weber-sites.com> wrote: > Hi > > I'm trying to go with your idea but I'm having difficulties with > preg_match_all. > I want the text between <?php and ?>.
