(PHP4 )
highlight_file -- Syntax highlighting of a file
Description
void highlight_file (string filename)
     The highlight_file() function prints out a syntax
     higlighted version of the code contained in filename 
     using the colors defined in the built-in syntax highlighter for PHP.
    
     
| Example 1. Creating a source highlighting URL 
       To setup a URL that can code hightlight any script that you pass to
       it, we will make use of the "ForceType" directive in
       Apache to generate a nice URL pattern, and use the 
       function highlight_file() to show a nice looking
       code list.
       
       In your httpd.conf you can add the following:
       
        
       And then make a file named "source" and put it in your
       web root directory.
       
        | 
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Source Display</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="white">
<?php
    $script = getenv ("PATH_TRANSLATED");
    if(!$script) {
    echo "<BR><B>ERROR: Script Name needed</B><BR>";
    } else {
    if (ereg("(\.php|\.inc)$",$script)) {
    echo "<H1>Source of: $PATH_INFO</H1>\n<HR>\n";
    highlight_file($script);
    } else {
    echo "<H1>ERROR: Only PHP or include script names are allowed</H1>"; 
    }
    }
    echo "<HR>Processed: ".date("Y/M/d H:i:s",time());
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>

       Then you can use an URL like the one below to display a colorized
       version of a script located in "/path/to/script.php" 
       in your web site.
