Syntax highlighting code in WordPress blogs

Since several of my posts have source code in them, I needed a way to syntax highlight. I found a pretty good one for PHP code, but it didn’t do anything else.

While working on an article for a JavaScript function, I needed a highlighter. So, out searching I went.

The one I found did PHP and JavaScript, along with a bunch of other languages using GeSHi as the back end. The plug-in itself is called iG:Syntax Highliter v2.0.

• Action Script
• ASP

• C++
• CSS
