Syntax highlighting deranged for JavaScript when using PHP inside JavaScript

#1

Hi guys,

Loving Sublime Text!

Wanted to let you know that I have an issue with syntax highlighting when using mixed PHP and JavaScript code as in the example below. I know some threads are open about similar issues, but they focus on PHP syntax highlighting and mine is more about JavaScript highlighting. Please have a look at it and perhaps merge with another issue if that’s the best approach.

I am using PHP inside JavaScript to set a variable and from that point on the JavaScript highlighting is broken until the end script tag.

A fix for this has already been made, and will be in the next build.* Alternatively, you can follow the instructions on the GitHub repo to use the fix in the current build.

* (Hope I’m not treading on any toes by saying that - I’m not a member of SublimeHQ, but I do contribute to the repo, and I know that the latest version of the repo is always used when a new release is made)

Sorry but I don’t know how to install a fix for this problem directly from GitHub repo, I see a lot of folders, but I don’t know if I need to copy those folders into my main folder or what. Can you explain it to me? Sorry too for my english :confounded:

if you have bought a licence for ST3, you can use the latest dev version, which includes this fix already, so you won’t need to do anything extra. You can download it from https://www.sublimetext.com/3dev

Thanks so much for your answer. I didn’t buy a license unfortunately (I only have the demo), but thanks anyway, i’ll keep waiting until I can buy a license or they release it as update to the demo version.

Thanks again for your help :slightly_smiling:
