Description

Syntax highlighting for PHP (and presumably other languages) does not appear to work at first glance. Upon further inspection, its clear that syntax hiliting within the CODE plugin expects a HTML file, rather than an inline code example. I propose a reversal of behavior to expecting an inline example.

Using this code:

Copy to clipboard
{CODE(colors="php")}
// this is a comment
basename($alpha);
{CODE}


This is output:

Copy to clipboard
// this is a comment
basename($alpha);


On the other hand using this code:
Using this code:

Copy to clipboard
{CODE(colors="php")}
<?php
// this is a comment
basename($alpha);
{CODE}


The highlighting is now enabled, but its not really the right code example any more:
Using this code:

Copy to clipboard
<?php
// this is a comment
basename($alpha);
