From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Any PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: highlight_string and similar highlights improper characters as a keyword
Description: ------------ There are two issues with highlight_string, highlight_file and `php -s`: 1. Some characters (like []{}) are highlighted in non-constant strings (i.e. double quote strings with variables) as a keyword even on places where they don't have any special purpose. 2. Some characters ([]{} and backslash sequences) are highlighted in non-constant strings and aren't highlighted in constant strings. It should be consistent. Suggested solution: Don't highlight anything as a keyword both in constant and non-constant strings. I've already sent a patch for this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reproduce code: --------------- <?php highlight_string('<?php "foo[] $a \n"; ?>'); ?> Expected result: ---------------- <code><font color="#000000"> <font color="#0000BB"><?php </font><font color="#DD0000">"foo[] $a \n"</font><font color="#007700">; </font><font color="#0000BB">?></font> </font> </code> Actual result: -------------- <code><font color="#000000"> <font color="#0000BB"><?php </font><font color="#DD0000">"foo</font><font color="#007700">[]</font><font color="#DD0000"> $a </font><font color="#007700">\n</font><font color="#DD0000">"</font><font color="#007700">; </font><font color="#0000BB">?></font> </font> </code> -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26703&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26703&r=float
