SyntaxHighlighter Evolved

Description:

As seen on WordPress.com.

SyntaxHighlighter Evolved allows you to easily post syntax-highlighted code to your site without having to escape the code or anything. It uses the SyntaxHighlighter JavaScript package by Alex Gorbatchev to do the highlighting and supports all of the package’s parameters via shortcode attributes.

For a list of supported languages (most widely used languages are supported), see the WordPress.com support document.

Example Code Output:

Note that there are various different color schemes available.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
	<title>PHP Code Example</title>
</head>
<body>
	<h1>PHP Code Example</h1>

	<p><?php echo 'Hello World!'; ?></p>

	<p>This line is highlighted.</p>

	<div class="foobar">
		This	is	an
		example	of	smart
		tabs.
	</div>

	<p><a href="http://wordpress.org/">WordPress</a></p>
</body>
</html>

If you prefer, you can hide the line numbering and other UI stuff with the “light” mode, for example:

[php light="true"]your code here[/php]

There are many other parameters and defaults you can control via the Settings page or the shortcode parameters. Full details and instructions are located at the bottom of the Settings page.
