SMF Better PHP

Current Version V1.0

SMF Better PHP is a small mod designed for SMF Forums, that improved on the standard formatting of PHP code within PHP BBC tags, the standard formatting applied by SMF 2.0 leaves the php code looking like coloured text with no seperation from the main post.

SMF Better PHP improves this by enclosing the php code in a Quote Style box and making the text bold to stand out better.

Standard PHP Highlighting:

<?
//Comment for Hello World
echo "Hello World";
?>

With "Better PHP"

<?phpecho ($some['code'], ' here);?>

yes but that means typing 2 seperate lots of tags, this allows the lot to be done throught 1 set of tags.

I only added code tags ??? to that though

If your talking about <?php and ?>
I suppose this will save a lot of time getting partial PHP code :)
