Gr8 work :)

I am PHP Programmer. I have a requirement from my client that needs to be fixed.
He have a wordpress-mu (1.2.1) intalles and there are several blog sites are running under it. This is his feedback,
” We’ve had issues posting HTML into wordpress. Wordpress wants to format the html after we post an article. Even if we only use the “Code” tab, the wordpress system will try to format what was pasted in. Here are some examples of the formatting:
formats out javascript tags
adds after each carriage return
changes — to –

Please look into creating a plugin that will bypass *all* the formatting when we post an article through the Code tab.”

Please suggest on this.

Thanks
Naveen

[...] Last week I had an exchange with Geoff over code formating and suggested it could be done with Javascript. We both happen to run Wordpress for our blogs and I have also been looking for a way to insert stylized code into blog entries, so I helped him to put together a solution. Pretty soon we had a solution. Initially I suggested that it could be done with a bit of Javascript. He considered creating his own new script, but like any pragmatic developer, he looked and found an existing solution called dp.SyntaxHighlighter instead of starting from scratch. [...]

That’s an interesting idea. You could import other files based on the class name to use as your template for syntax highlighting.

I’m gonna start working on it! :)

For my Wordpress blog I simply turned off the wysiwyg editor and now hack the code as I like.

Now to make it smart enough to do syntax highlighting would be extremely useful. One approach would be to place your code into a code block with a class attribute denoting the language. Then I would active some Javascript to run through the code elements and highlight the keywords for the respective languages. That would be an excellent addition to one of the major Javascript frameworks. And then auto-linking the import/using statements to the official online documentation would be even better.
