php语法高亮函数（代码高亮的入门例子，可自行扩充）

//php实现语法高亮效果
function syntax_highlight($code){
 // this matches --> "foobar" <--
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/"(.*?)"/U',
  '"<span style="color: #007F00">$1</span>"', $code
 );
 // hightlight functions and other structures like --> function foobar() <---
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/(s)b(.*?)((b|s)()/U',
  '$1<span style="color: #0000ff">$2</span>$3',
  $code
 );
 // Match comments (like /* */):
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/(//)(.+)s/',
  '<span style="color: #660066; background-color: #FFFCB1;"><i>$0</i></span>',
  $code
 );
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/(/*.*?*/)/s',
  '<span style="color: #660066; background-color: #FFFCB1;"><i>$0</i></span>',
  $code
 );
 // hightlight braces:
 $code = preg_replace('/((|[|{|}|]|)|->)/', '<strong>$1</strong>', $code);
 // hightlight variables $foobar
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/($[a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/', '<span style="color: #0000B3">$1</span>', $code
 );
 /* The b in the pattern indicates a word boundary, so only the distinct
 ** word "web" is matched, and not a word partial like "webbing" or "cobweb"
 */
 // special words and functions
 $code = preg_replace(
  '/b(print|echo|new|function)b/',
  '<span style="color: #7F007F">$1</span>', $code
 );
 return $code;
