Well I'm not sure if you'll agree with me, as that is the reason I have the poll.

The D&D section, or the whole forum in general, needs a new syntax highlighter as the current one looks like crap, uses dull colors, and only highlights PHP.

We have HTML being posted, Javascript, desktop programming languages, and it should be highlighted, it makes it easier to read and a few more things.

I found a plugin that uses GeSHI:

It can highlight almost any language you can think of, and uses tags.

Example:

Please voice your opinion. If you don't use the D&D section and don't know what I'm talking about, you are free to voice your opinion but please don't ruin the poll ;)

Theres a newer version for 3.7.x I think. I saw it a few days ago.

I actually thought this had already been implemented. But, I do agree, it would be a good add-on to have with all the D&D stuff, even the Tech parts too (Visual Basic, C++, Javascript, etc).

Indeed, several types of coding languages get posted around now but most of them are highlighted incorrectly or differently then they are elsewhere. Would be cool.
