Former: Extension:SyntaxHighlight GeSHi

This extension is replaced by the Extension:SyntaxHighlight, it adds the <syntaxhighlight> tag to present formatted source code.

Usage

You can wrap source code with <syntaxhighlight lang=LANG>...</syntaxhighlight> where LANG is a supported language. This will syntax highlight the source code when viewed in the Wiki page.

Example

<syntaxhighlight lang="php">
<?php
    $v = "string";    // sample initialization
?>
html text
<?
    echo $v;         // end of php code
?>
</syntaxhighlight>

shows:

<?php
    $v = "string";    // sample initialization
?>
html text
<?
    echo $v;         // end of php code
?>
