There are 2 ways to do this I've recently discovered:
First, use the highlight_file command thus,
highlight_file('hello.php');
Second, allow .phps files. To do this (I'm using an Ubuntu Apache on local host here), go to the file /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf
Change the line highlighted in red to the one highlighted in blue
<FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
# Deny access to raw php sources by default
# To re-enable it's recommended to enable access to the files
# only in specific virtual host or directory
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
</FilesMatch>
Now, if you rename hello.php to hello.phps and display it in your browser, it will show as PHP code.
Hope this helps.

Simple Twitter Bootstrap with Knockout
The code below demonstrates some simple features of Knockout (or knockout.js) within a Twitter Bootstrap page. The funny thing is, you need jQuery for Twitter Bootstrap, so you're forced to get the best of both worlds, at the cost of your page loading speed.
The page does 3 things:
As you put text into the input box, the text is synchronised with the H1 tag
When you're happy, you can click the "I'm happy" button
Clicking the button adds the text to the list group below
I've put the Knockout items in red.

- Thumbnails of each image as the indicators.
- Hovering over images highlights the fact that you can click on them.
- Clicking on an image will display them in a modal window.

Launch images in modal windows within Twitter Bootstrap using jQuery
So the challenge has 4 parts:
Make the image appear in thumbnail size on the page before it appears in the modal.
Change the opacity of the image on hover, so that users know if they click on it something may happen.
When the image is clicked, take information from the image tag and pass it to the modal window.
Make the image take up the whole modal window when launched.
Below is how to do it. I've highlighted the code in red.

Basic HTML5 web app template which works online and offline
Here I provide the code for 3 main files in the creation of a web app. This obviously remains working when there is no internet connection, but differently since back end databases etc. would no longer be available.
In order for this to work, you should also download jQuery.
First we will need an appcache file (in this case mobile.appcache) which tells the browser what to store locally. It should look like this:
CACHE MANIFEST
# 2015-02-23 v1.0.0
index.html
html5shiv/3.7.2/html5shiv.min.js
respond/1.4.2/respond.min.js
jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js
onlineoffline.plugin.js
NETWORK:
*
Every time you make a change, update the date and version numbers in order for receivers of the web app to get the updated version.
Next we'll need a jQuery plugin (onlineoffline.plugin.js) to handle differences in web app behaviour when online or offline:
(function($)
{
$.fn.extend(
{
onlineoffline:function(options)
{
}
});
$.fn.handleOnline = function()
{
console.log('Handling online');
};
$.fn.handleOffline = function()
{
console.log('Handling offline');
};
})(jQuery);
Finally, the HTML file (index.html). This makes a reference to the appcache and detects if the web app is online or offline. I've kept the CSS in this file too in order to reduce the number of files needed in this example.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" manifest="mobile.appcache">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">

<body>
<h1>Hello world!</h1>
<script src="jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="onlineoffline.plugin.js"></script>
<script>
setInterval(function()
{
if(navigator.onLine == true)
{
$(this).handleOnline();
}

{
$(this).handleOffline();
}
}, 250);

Match the current URL with the responding navigation items of a Twitter Bootstrap site
So, you've got a Twitter Bootstrap website and you want the navigation items to become active when you're in the corresponding page. Below I wrote the jQuery plugin to do just that.
First the HTML

jQuery plugin for content shared by multiple pages
Often content will appear in multiple pages in your website. For example, headers and footers will be the same on all pages. This is easily done using PHP, but it can also be done using jQuery, in fact better. Below is a Twitter Bootstrap page. As you can see I have a nav, a header and a footer. All of which have nothing in them, but I do have 3 things in my armoury:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>jQuery includes</title>
<link href="bootstrap-3.3.2-dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="css/custom.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="html5shiv/3.7.2/html5shiv.min.js"></script>
<script src="respond/1.4.2/respond.min.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar navbar-default"></nav>
<div class="row">
<div class="container">
<header class="col-md-12"></header>
</div><!-- .container -->
</div><!-- .row -->
<div class="row">
<div class="container">
<div class="col-md-12">
<p>Use the navigation.</p>
</div>
</div><!-- .container -->
</div><!-- .row -->
<div class="row">
<div class="container">
<footer class="col-md-12"></footer>
</div><!-- .container -->
</div><!-- .row -->
<script src="jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="bootstrap-3.3.2-dist/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/receiveget.plugin.js"></script>
<script src="js/include.plugin.js"></script>
<script src="js/custom.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Now let's have a look at the include.plugin.js. It does a simple load, but while we're waiting for the content to come through a loader gif is put inside the calling element. This is overwritten when the content arrives.
(function($)
{
$.fn.extend(
{
include:function(includefn)
{
$(this).append($('<img>',{src:'img/loading.gif'}));
$(this).load(includefn);
}
});
})(jQuery);
Finally, custom.js which contains the calls we need.
(function()
{
$('nav.navbar.navbar-default').include('includes/navbar.html');
$('header').include('includes/header.html');
$('footer').include('includes/footer.html');
})();
- A directory called 'includes/' which contains navbar.html, header.html and footer.html. They hold the content I need to fill these empty elements.
- A plugin called 'include.plugin.js' (shown in red) which applies external file content to these empty elements.
- A 'custom.js' (shown in red) which can be loaded on every new page I create.

$('header').include('includes/header.html');
