[RESOLVED] Posting code on Wordpress blogs

[chris128]

Has anyone got any kind of widget or even just a good way of formatting code when posting it on a wordpress blog? This is not just a shameless plug of my own blog but if you look on any of my posts that have got code examples in (http://cjwdev.wordpress.com) you will see how ugly and unreadable the code is. I'm sure I've seen other wordpress blogs with nice colour coded and properly formatted code examples though so cant help thinking I must be missing something...

Cheers

Thanks that looks like what I want but now I cant seem to find any way to actually upload and use it :S Every tutorial says "just click on the plugins menu and..." but I dont have a plugins menu. I'm wondering if you dont get that functionality with the free accounts but cant find anything that even mentions that anywhere..

Ah nevermind, I found this page which explains why: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Basically, if you use Wordpress.com you cannot use plug-ins but if you use Wordpress.org then you can. The main difference between the two is that if you use .org you have to host the site yourself, so I guess I'll just stick with Wordpress.com with no plug-ins for now

Why not just make one, the only reason x:Light never supported HTML/CSS is because I didn't know enough about it and Mendhak told me he would 'ave my knackers if I kept asking him to do it for me ;0
