I'm using listings
to highlight some PHP code. My problems comes when the code to insert contains the '$' symbol, for example:
\begin{lstlisting}[style=PHP]
Select * FROM users WHERE user_name = $_POST['user'];
\end{lstlisting}
The $ set maths mode and the text after the lstlisting is included until I type another $. I've been looking for solution but unluckily. Using '\$
' to escape the symbol $ does not work inside the lstlisting (in my pdf it would appear '\$
' and obviously I don't want that to happen).
The PHP lst style is set like follows:
\lstdefinestyle{PHP}{
frame=tb, to wrap the text with black horizontal lines
language=php,
aboveskip=3mm,
belowskip=3mm,
showstringspaces=false,
basicstyle = \small\ttfamily,
keywordstyle = \color{cyan},
stringstyle = \color{gray},
identifierstyle = \color{blue},
commentstyle = \color{green},
emph =[1]{php},
emphstyle =[1]\color{black},
emph =[2]{if,and,or,else},
breaklines=true,
breakatwhitespace=true,
tabsize=3,
%emphstyle =[2]\color{dkyellow}
}
$
working as expected, thus not starting math mode.$
? I think it is only the misbeheaving of the editors syntax highlighting. Some editors do not recognize listings well.
