    stb74 - 2007-10-13

    I have just recently started using notepad++ and its such an excellent tool, don't know how I have done without it.

    I mainly use it for coding in php, but what I find from time to time is when I change some of the code slightly the colour coded variables, and mysql queries doesn't work any more.  Its as if I have left out a quotation or semi colon.

    If I load the code into dreamweaver or similar the code structure is fine.  Sometimes if I change the writing language to something else and then back to php, it fixes the issue.

    Can someone please help me.

    Thanks

      At the moment I have open a file and all the code is grand and all the colours are correct.

      <?php in red
      if echo while in blue etc

      This code snippet currently has the ech in blue and the o in grey

      echo"
      </td>
      <td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\" width=\"40%\">$data[cup_name]
      </td>
      </tr>";

      I know this is a pretty simple example but then you start to look at the rest of the code and see if there is any mistakes.

      There are times when I modify a mysql query and then all the code from then on is the default grey.
