Worked pretty good. It seems to have trouble with the \ and \\ chars for some reason, but close
enough for jazz as they say... (notice the array has \\ when it should only be a single one, however
if I get that to work, then the color coding after it is messed up and the \n don't show up.
Grr.)
Czech out http://daevid.com "Free Code > Code
Snippets"
I think the little curled corners are slick too!
PHP.net, you're free to borrow my idea/CSS for your website if you like :D
Now if only the colorize/highlight functions worked on other types of source code (ruby, bash,
procmail, etc)... Maybe I'll just have to use Geshi afterall...
