Examples

[GeorgeMoney]

How do you make those "examples" like you see in many php things, like the comments are orange and strings are red and variables are blue and commands are green?

Is there a predefined function to do this? or do you have to use a script? if so can someone show me?


Sorry if this sounds a little stupid.


Thanks in advance!

You can use highlight_string or highlight_file which will colour your PHP code, just the like forum does here:
[code=php:0]<?php

echo "hello world";

?>[/code]
