    I’m desperate to get this working on my WordPress blog (releasing a web site to production tomorrow). I install both plugins but I can not get the button to appear within the editor. Upon checking the source of the new post page, I see that the syntaxhl plugin is being registered and the button is being added, but the button doesn’t appear in the editor. I’m desperate for help!

    Could you please tell me the browser and version you are using? Then I will try to test the plugin in a similar scenario.

    Hi there!!!

    I’m trying tu use this great plugin, but it is driving me crazy. When I paste code into the editor, it appears correctly indented. But as soo as I preview the post, all the tabs that kept the code indented have disappeared, and all the code is a mess….

    ANy idea???

    Thanks man. And keep up the good work.

      Thanks a lot for your feedback.
      I just tried it myself and it works for me using tabs. So could you kindly provide an example? The best would be a post in your blog, if that’s possible. Just to be sure that it’s not theme related or occurs only in combination with specific options.

        Hi,

        I don’t have your email. Sorry, I can’t post it in the blog cause the code is a disaster. Download this file (74kb) and load it in your browser. You will see the effect.

        Thanks a lot.

          Thanks for the example. I think I solved your issue.
          The HTML that is created looks quite good. But have a look at line 376 of your style.css. There you set display: block for your code tags, which means every code-element is displayed in a new line.
          Removing that line solves your problem, but it may be necessary for your theme.

    When I came over to SyntaxHL Editor I can only look at part of it, is this my net web browser or the internet web site? Should I reboot? Cheers Aladdin Lara

      What exaclty means you can only look at part of it. Could you provide a screenshot or at least describe the problem in detail? Thanks.
