No Syntax Coloring with PDT 1.03 in Eclipse 3.4 [message #81033]

Hi *,

I got PDT installed in Eclipse 3.4, however Syntax Colring isn't
working. Is that a known issue, or is there anything I could do to get
it working?

Ingo,

I was having troubles with the editor that included syntax coloring...
it turned out that there were some php tags formatted as follows:

<?if ()...?>

this was making the editor behave strangely, including syntax coloring.
You might want to proof you code to include a space between the start
tag and contents:

<? if()... ?>

Regards,
Richard

Well, there's your problem right there. 1.03 isn't even supposed to work
with Ganymede. Use 2.0, otherwise you'll need to stick with Europa.

Cheers,
David

Probably more related to running the wrong version of PDT. 1.03 isn't even
supposed to work on Eclipse 3.4. You'll either have to upgrade PDT, or
downgrade Eclipse.

Oops. Firefox crashed on me and I didn't realize I'd sent that through
twice...
