PHP Code Colour

[Dysan]

Hi, I want to create a script that formats different parts of the code into different colours. - How do I do this?

 

Also, how do I know what standard colours to use, e.g. Red = Strings etc.)

There is already a function that does this. Read up on highlight_string() and highlight_file().

<?php
$string = "<?php echo 'Hello, world!'; ?>";
highlight_string($string);
?>

You would want to use CSS to do this. If you post what you have now, we could help you.
