I know its completely random, but I wondered if any of the forum team (or anyone else) could tell me where to get that nifty syntax highlighting script that gets applied to code a la:
if($shoesize = true)
{
wear();
}I know there are a few popular ones out there for web pages but rather like this one, and I’ve seen the exact same script on a few other sites but I can’t find out who wrote it or where to get it!
Cheers!

Pssst, don’t tell anyone, but it’s actually a php function.
If you’re using CI, the highlight_code function in the text helper will do all the important ancillary work.

Google also offers one that is language independent and works pretty well (it’s what Stack Overflow uses).

I like the colors of the Google Code highlighter. Would love to get that theme for TextMate.
