PHPHighlight is a PHP syntax highlighting extension for MediaWiki

Syntax

[edit]

<php>php code</php>


Example

[edit]
<php>
// Example 1
$pizza  = "piece1 piece2 piece3 piece4 piece5 piece6";
$pieces = explode(" ", $pizza);
echo $pieces[0]; // piece1
echo $pieces[1]; // piece2
</php>

Result

[edit]

This will give something like the following (though not exactly):


// Example 1
$pizza  = "piece1 piece2 piece3 piece4 piece5 piece6";
$pieces = explode(" ", $pizza);
echo
$pieces[0]; // piece1
echo $pieces[1]; // piece2

   // now remove the outer PHP tags
   $output = str_replace (array('<?php',

                                '<code>',
                                '</code>'),
                          '',
                          $output);

   return '<pre>' . preg_replace('|<br ?/?>|i', "\n", trim($output)) . '</pre>';
}
?>

Installing the extension

[edit]

Copy the code above into a file called PHPHighlight.php and save this into your wiki extensions directory.

Then add the following line to the end of your LocalSettings.php file:

include("extensions/PHPHighlight.php");

and you are ready to go.
