note 85644 added to function.highlight-file

From W on 20 August 2008: YES! I do it too, on many of my things! I love to be able to share my code (when I have the right to do it) with friends who aren't working on the project. <?php if (isset($_GET['code'])) { die(highlight_file(__FILE__, 1)); } ?> I like to do it like this. The benefit is minimal but personally for such a small thing I would like to keep it down to one line. Maybe there is a shorter way, I don't know.. But the magic constant __FILE__ saves the day! To access this one would be http://example.com/path/to/script.php?code the parameter just has to be set (? or &) and you don't need the equals sign. This way I don't generate any errors in E_ALL (because I'm likely in development), and I don't have to remember if the value was supposed to be "true" or "1" or "abacus" or whatever (I mean you're never going to specifically ask to NOT show the code, right?) Anyway I've gone on long enough. It's nice to not be the only one who does this :D ---- Server IP: 203.89.181.186 Probable Submitter: 125.236.211.165 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.highlight-file.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85644 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85644 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85644 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
