Displaying coding language in end user view

[eluser]elaniobro[/eluser]
I have been reading through the forums and the wiki, I have not seen any instance or refrence to what I am trying to accomplish, perhaps it is due to a lack of vocab on the subject.

I would like to do what this forum does. Essential use[code[]/code] (I reversed them so you can see) to display Code on the webpage. Is their a helper/library out there that can achieve this?

So in essense I would like to be able to display code on my site similar to how you see it below:

Code:

$this->load->view('header', $data);
            $this->load->view('campaign');
            $this->load->view('thoughts_view', $data);
            $this->load->view('footer');

It would be even better if you can get Line numbers involved.

Play around with this and see if it help:

Code:

<?php highlight_file( __FILE__ ); ?>

A quick Google and...

http://php.net/manual/en/function.highlight-file.php

I also discovered show_source(...) but have not tried it.

And an example:
