All you need to do is download google prettify script and save it to js folder as run_prettify.js. Download Prettify script from here. Now, Include JavaScript into your webpage in <head> tag. Put code snippets in <pre class="prettyprint"> html tag and it will be pretty printed automatically.
Do not forget to encode greater than sign (>) or lower than sign (<) in code snippet. You can also use <pre>, <code> or <xmp> elements with the “prettyprint” class.
Google Prettify provides verious skins for code snippets. You can use different skins by adding skin parameter in url.
Example:
<script src="js/run_prettify.js?skin=sunburst"></script>
“sunburst” is default skin provided by Google Prettify.
The linenums class with prettify tag tells the prettyprinter to insert an <ol> element and <li> elements around each line so that you get line numbers.
<code class="prettyprint linenums">
You can add line numbering start at specific number by adding line number with linenums class.
Example:
<code class="prettyprint linenums:10">
The class linenums:10 makes line numbering starts with 10.
I hope that you found this best script.
