Code to display my code

Michelle

Hi all,

I am taking a class in PHP and thought that it would be nice to display
the PHP code that generated my pages when the user clicked a link (or
submit button). I have seen page that will display the underlying HTML
on the page and it would be a nice touch...I think

Is there a way to do this?

TIA,

Miki

http://www.php.net/highlight_file

Example:

<?php
echo 'Hello World!';
highlight_file($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
?>

The HTML output is (reformatted):

Hello World!<code>

<?php 
echo 
'Hello World!'
]; 
highlight_file
(
$_SERVER
[
'PHP_SELF'
]
); 
?> 

</code>

sounds like you want to use fopen, fread and fclose functions to read your
script into a variable and then display it.
your current script's filename is in the variable
$_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]

so you'll end up with something like:

$filename = $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"];
$filehandle = @fopen($filename, "r");
$contents = fread($filehandle, filesize($filename));
@fclose($handle);

next, display $contents in any way you like. you can also use file()
function to read the file into an array, etc.
note that the @ prevents error messages from displaying and revealing
your script's location when an error occurs, which is more secure.

I noticed that Message-ID: <J_RUb.240902$na.397133@attbi_s04> from
Michelle contained the following:

You could save the file with a .phps extension which makes the code
visible and nicely coloured.

There is PHP code to display HTML and PHP code (or a mixture of the two) -
with appropriate syntax highlighting for both languages - at:
