This post is mostly to test out the functionality, but I thought I would mention a little bit about the code as a part of the test.

I know it sounds crazy, but up until now I had no clue how this was accomplished,  so I set out to find the best syntax highlighter that was available and this is what I found.

A guy named Alex Gorbatchev created  syntaxHighlighter 2.0.  But then an amazing thing happened, Lars Corneliussen creates beautyOfCode as a jQuery Plugin which makes use of Alex's code plus a bunch more features.   After evaluating several this was the very best that I found.  It is clean, sheek and as simple to use as eating a piece of homemade pie.

Look at this example of useage it does not get any easier than this folks.

		$.beautyOfCode.init({
			brushes: ['Xml', 'JScript', 'CSharp', 'Plain', 'Php'],
			ready: function() {
				$.beautyOfCode.beautifyAll();
				$("#someCode").beautifyCode('javascript', {gutter:false});
			}
		});

So after all was said and done, i got the code syntax highlighting to work ..
but this is the end result.


Because I am using an WYSIWYG Editor my code seems to get all jacked up when I copy and
paste code.

I'm posting this blog as an example of what is going wrong on the forum and hopefully
someone will be able to help me.
