Greasy Fork

Add syntax highlighting to forum code blocks

• Problem: code blocks on Greasyfork forum currently are displayed without any syntax highlighting with an obtrusive bright yellow background which looks very bad on anything bigger than a few words/lines.
• Solution: enable the same syntax highlighter that is used now on the userscript code page/tab (CodeRay apparently).
• Side note: someone may want to apply the bright yellow highlight using tag so it should be fixed to implement this (currently it doesn't work), something like mark { background: #ff9; }

P.S. In case it's not easy to implement in the foreseeable future, there's a temporary userscript solution (screenshot).

It wouldn't be the same highlighter, as CodeRay is a server-side Ruby highlighter and the forum is PHP.

@JasonBarnabe, hopefully this helps: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/230270/php-syntax-highlighting

Vanilla has a few syntax highlighting plugins available. I'll have to see if any are suitable.

Also the client side highlighting we discussed some time ago should work here as the code is not that big :)
