flunn Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I want to display a hundred or so lines of html/php code on a web page. I've found a code munger that does an excellent job of converting html code into ascii codes. The problem is that when I put the results between <p> tags there are no line breaks, so it's quite unreadable. When I put the ascii codes into a "TEXT AREA" box there are line breaks but not in the right places. Any suggestions as to how I might solve this problem would be much appreciated. I just want the displayed code to look like it looks in my html editor (Taco). best regards to all from flunn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterACE14 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 use file_get_contents(); PHP function to get the file contents as it is, rather then have it squashed into a never ending line.\ Regards ACE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flunn Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 Thanks, ACE, for your reply. I used the function you suggested and it certainly does come closer to getting the lines right. However there are problems: -The doctype does not appear. -None of the html tags appear. -The radio buttons I used in forms appear as actual radio buttons instead of appearing as '<input type = "radio" ...'. -Instead of being at the end of the lines of php code as they're supposed to be, the quotation marks and the semi-colons come at the beginning of the following line. If you have any other suggestions as to how I can display code that is set up in the way it's set up in my html editor, I'd be very grateful. regards to all from flunn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
