ActionScript Syntax Highlighter

ActionScript Syntax Highlighter
Tested on vBulletin 3.0.0 Gold

What does this do?
This hack will highlight your Flash ActionScript when in [as] tags. This comes in extremely handy when your forums deal with Flash. All functions, properties, identifiers, and everything else is covered.

Credits:
Big thanks to Martin Dubuc (dubucm@wawawoom.com) for writing the main script. Martin specified in his file that "This script is freeware and can be used without any restrictions".

Installation Overview:
Files to Upload: (1)
-- includes/ash_as.php
Files to Edit: (1)
-- includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php
Templates to Add: (1)
-- bbcode_as

More Information:
If the set colors conflict with you current color scheme, you can change them to whatever you want. They are located in the beginning of the ash_as.php file. On another note, the ash_as.php file is a whopping 35 kilobytes. This will definitely make the page loads on showthread slower. If you really want it, then it's worth the load.

Very clever hack but :

require_once('./includes/functions_bbcodeparse_custom_created.php');


functions_bbcodeparse_custom_created.php don't existe in v 3.0.1.

How can i include ash_as.php ?

[AdmiralB]

Try putting the include under the following in functions_bbcodeparse.php:

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

That should work bearing that the way bbcodes are handled hasn't changed much.

Somebody in our community reported a bug... Can this be fixed???

Basically it goes with the \ getting escaped and the wrong use of the smiley, I guess... You will see what I mean when you see this thread...

PS: What about integrating it into 3.0.7.? Anyone tried it?

Tried to get bihind the error, but without success. Someone else already fixed this issue, mentioned above?

Also another problem occured with Firefox:

Scroll down a little bit and see the code running out of the box. Just turned off the overflow... any idea?

Thanks!

Hmm. Okay, 'cause everyone's asking so much I'll put this here, don't know if it helps anyone, but I got it to work this way. (We have vb3.0.7)

Okay, a new bug is found.

If you use it like this
trace ('this is proper AS syntax,');
trace ('but if I happen to own a 19" monitor,');
trace ('the syntax is all ++++ed up');
all will be highlighted wrong.

Anyway, if someone's skilled enough in PHP, it would be nice if someone would do something for this. If I (meaning my skilled friends :D) come up with something, I'll post it here. :)

Anyone got it running in 3.5.3? Get an error at Line 32 in ash_as.php "cant redeclare..."

Any help?

[marc_t]

OK.. that was my fault. Had defined this plug-in two times. NOw I delete one and the error is gone. But [as] tag still isn't working :(
