[Qt-creator] Syntax highlighting of PHP files

[David Schulz]

Hi,

I resubmitted a change that was lost during a feature freeze 
(https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/88138/)
You can check if the new syntax file works by simply replacing your 
html.xml syntax file with the new web.xml from the patch under <creator 
path>/share/qtcreator/generic-highlighter.

BR,

David
