Muddy_Funster Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 or... <?php $source = file_get_contents(source.php) echo '<form>'; echo '<textarea name = "source">'; echo $source; echo '</textarea></form>'; ?> as for your "copy to clipboard" option, you'll need client side scripting like jscript, not php Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/201424-display-html-source-code-from-php/#findComment-1057078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberRobot Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 A simple solution to at least highlight the code would be: <form> <textarea name="code" onfocus="this.select();"> <?php echo '<html>'; echo '<body>'; echo '<p>Hello World</p>'; echo '<body>'; echo '</html>'; ?> </textarea> </form> Of course this solution doesn't do the copy part. I would need to brush up on my JavaScript to figure that out.

.Stealth Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I looked into doing the copy to clipboard once and it wasn't that easy to do, due to browsers not wanting sites to access the clipboard for security reasons. Photobucket managed it but they did it with flash. There's a few scripts around for doing it but most are buggy.
