hey y'all . i want to be able to put my programs on my website so that they turn out the way they do in these forums. by that i mean they end up looking the way it does below except with code in it, not just ....... obviously ha. does anybody know? cheers.Code:...........
What? Are you really this dumb? Copy and paste your code in.
Code:LOOK, I COPIED SOMETHING!!
LOOK, I COPIED THE URL http://cboard.cprogramming.com/c-programming/146546-put-your-programs-website.html
thanks i wouldnt consider myself dumb now , im just not as smart as you :)
actually that didn't work. i copied and pasted it into the html on my website and only the text came up helpp
> thanks i wouldnt consider myself dumb now , im just not as smart as you
I never said I was smart, but this is just common sense..
Unless it was a dumb moment and you just weren't thinking?
read my comment above yours
Wait...what? That sounds like something you should know if you're coding HTML, and not a C problem at all. (i thought you were having trouble with formatting etc. initially, never mind)
I don't know HTML much anymore, but there's most likely something like a [ code ] tag, you'd have to look on google. Edit: and just to clarify, it probably isn't called a code tag.
alright ye ive never done html but the website im using has a html box which you can copy code into but im certain there is a way of copying c code in with tags before and after etc.. but i want my c programs to end up in a box like on this website you know what i mean? i dont want it to look like plain text.
Show me the website and/or its source.
Also, would this > HTML Basic help at all?
Try Googling for javascript syntax highlight or something like that. I found this one right now for example: syntaxhighlighter - Free syntax highlighter written in Java Script - Google Project Hosting
There's more to choose from if you search a bit.
ah cheers memcpy ill read into that now for a while thanks.Quote:

If you're not a perl user (and don't have vim installed), that might not be the best route. Which is no big deal, because any tool which does this will probably highlight C/C++.
A quick google turned this up:
Online syntax highlighting
Presto! If that's not good enough, post this on the tech board and you'll get more suggestions.

wud you know what to do on the online syntzx highlighting? like do i print my code in and then it can get converted to html in which then i can paste into the html on my website which in turn will produce the programs i have written but not in plain text mode?

That does work, but it creates some pretty messy html. If you use a pre made javascript library, you just link to it in the <head> then all your <pre> tags automagically adds syntax highlight.
It's only "messy" in the sense that it uses inline style, but that's not as poor a practice as using js to mark-up static content (and I heart javascript).Quote:

CSS on that level is as simple as it looks.Code:.synStatement {color: #00ffff}
.synIdentifier {color: #88ff88}
.synConstant {color: #ffff00}
.synPreProc {
color: #ff00ff;
font-weight:bold;
}
.synComment {
background: #cccccc;
color: #151515;
font-style:italic;
}
.synSpecial {
color: #ff4444;
font-weight:bold;;
}
.synType {color: #00aa00}
Full property table
Why? To take syntaxhighlighter as an example you would put it's directory in your root folder, then:Quote:

A couple of changes to the above:
SyntaxHighlighter seems to be what's used on this site.Code:<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/shCore.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/shBrushCpp.js"></script>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="styles/shCoreDefault.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript">SyntaxHighlighter.all();</script>
</head>
<body style="background: white; font-family: Helvetica">
<pre class="brush: cpp;">
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
printf("Hello World\n");
return 0;
}
</pre>
Oops, yeah. :)Quote:

Because it has to be executed. I guess that is not a really big deal (people who turn js off are idiots anyway), but I'd call it "abuse" if you use it to do something that is technically not necessary.Quote:

It would make perfect sense somewhere where the content is being generated dynamically server side (eg, here), which is presumably where it is derived from. But if you are just creating a static page -- I'd go with pregenerated mark-up. Notice that the highlighting here is very slow.
I'll probably make use of that at some point myself, tho, lol. Text::VimColor is too slow for use in real time server side, and if you are doing dynamic content, it's always better to offload the work to the client. Thanks ;)
Yeah, I guess that's the point that could be held against it, or the person using it. :)Quote:
