Unfortunately I do not, but then the editors are not really my area of
expertise.

AFAIK gedit is using a completely different highlighter. So that gedit
works is not really a sign that creator should also work.

Creator will most likely also have trouble with PHP embedded in HTML.
AFAIK (not my area of expertise, see above) Creator has one generic
highlighter, so you will get either PHP or HTML.

At the moment i use QtCreator 3.0 on OpenSUSE 12.3. Syntax highlighting
works for me only with Project specific files (.cpp, .h).
I also tried to generic highlight PHP or HTML files, but always failed.

In the environment setup i see many of registered MIME - types. Also
both configured paths ( HOME and katepart ) in the highlighting section
are full of XML files???



Best regards,
