Use htmlentities() -
just what you need thers also highlight_string()photoshop too expensive? use the GIMP! www.gimp.orgComment

ok im not sure how to apply that....the post is read from a file and stored in a variable called $thread and printed to the page..
how would i have it print $thread so that the coding isnt parsed and is printed to the page?~Designer's Toolz~Comment

If you want to show the code, use something like
Or if you want to hightlight it, usePHP Code:$thread = htmlentities($thread);
echo $thread;
PHP Code:$thread = hightlight_string($thread);
echo $thread;

Sorry, was in a rush when I typed it, it should be
PHP Code:$thread = "<?php echo 'hello there'; ?>";
$highlighted = highlight_string($thread,true);
echo $highlighted;Comment

it prints it to the page....but its all in black..no special highlighting.~Designer's Toolz~Comment

It won't highlight html code, it'll only work on something that is based on c, like javascript and php. For it to highlight html, if that's what you're trying to highlight, you will have to create your own function to do itComment

Great, Thanks man

Right, well you'll need to use the following function now (thanks to Yakir Sitbon from php.net manual)
Now to call that function, usePHP Code:
$thread = "<?php echo 'hello'; ?> <html>";
function PrintCode ($code,
$normal_html='#ff0000',
$default='#0000BB',
$keyword='#000080',
$string='#b60033',
$comment='#008000',
$tag_open_close='#ffffcc'
)
{
echo "<style>\n";
echo ".source span.normal_html { color: $normal_html; }\n";
echo ".source span.default { color: $default; }\n";
echo ".source span.keyword { color: $keyword; FONT-WEIGHT: bold;}\n";
echo ".source span.string { color: $string; }\n";
echo ".source span.comment { color: $comment; font-style: italic; }\n";
echo ".source span.tag_open_close { color: $default; BACKGROUND-COLOR: $tag_open_close; }\n";
echo "</style>\n";
{
echo '<pre class="source">';
$source = highlight_string($code, TRUE);
// search style.
$search[0] = '<font color="'.ini_get('highlight.html').'">';
$search[1] = '<font color="'.ini_get('highlight.default').'">';
$search[2] = '<font color="'.ini_get('highlight.keyword').'">';
$search[3] = '<font color="'.ini_get('highlight.string').'">';
$search[4] = '<font color="'.ini_get('highlight.comment').'">';
$search[5] = '</font>';
$search[6] = '<br />';
$search[7] = '\r';
$search[8] = ' ';
$search[9] = '<?';
$search[10] = '?>';
// replace style.
$replace[0] = '<span class="normal_html">';
$replace[1] = '<span class="default">';
$replace[2] = '<span class="keyword">';
$replace[3] = '<span class="string">';
$replace[4] = '<span class="comment">';
$replace[5] = '</span>';
$replace[6] = "\n";
$replace[7] = '';
$replace[8] = ' ';
$replace[9] = '<span class="tag_open_close"><?</span>';
$replace[10] = '<span class="tag_open_close">?></span>';
echo str_replace($search, $replace, $source);
echo '</pre>';
}
}
PHP Code:PrintCode($thread);
