Code formatting

[Guest]

I've just started using php-residence after evaluating several php hotel systems for a hotel website, and I'd like to congratualte Marco on a truly excellent piece of software. Everytime I try to configure it to do something which I know the site will need I find you've already thought of it. On top of that a concise and well thought out interface and I'm really very impressed.

Only one criticism if I may, can I make a plea for your source to be formated and indented? I find it very difficult to follow with no indents (and not speaking italian doesn't help ). I've tried auto formatting it in PHP Designer but without much success (but maybe I'm missing an obvious tool that can reformat it?)

Hi Kevin,
as you have noticed I really don't like indentation... until now I thoght this wasn't a problem for others because there were many tools for reformatting php code, but doing some searches on google I've found only a shareware at http://www.textrush.com/. It works only on windows, so I haven't tried it.
Let me know if it works, or maybe somebody reading this forum knows a better solution.

You could try Beauty PHP, it's a PHP script that tries to reformat and beautify PHP source code files automatically. It's Open Source.

I don't try it yet.

Hi Jorge,
I've tried it and it seems to do its job. I've had only a problem uploading big files, but I think that's a problem with the configuration of apache and php.
