using this tag ['php'] (purposefully misrepresented) what is it that actually handles the output of the text to syntax highlight it

i would really like to develop something like this for a project, could anyone point me in the right direction?

- Downloaded http://phpbbhacks.com/viewhack.php?id=1400
- Unzipped it
- Looked in the file
- Found this line

Code: Select all

highlight_string($text);

Lol, keep it civil guys, this could be a valuable thread, it'd be a shame to get it deleted due to petty crap.
