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>
