I have some javascript files with .php extension. When I open them in Netbeans I'd like it to highlight things as if it were a .js file. In Notepad++ I can just select the language in the menu and I'm good to go. Is there a similar feature for Netbeans?

I don't want to change the highlighting for ALL php files, and I don't mind if I have to reselect the language each time I open the file as it's only one or two files. Thanks.

Yes, It is possible for simple step. - open NetBeans - select tools tab - select tools->options->fonts & colors->syntax->language - select a language as per need and change the color of it

  • You have misunderstood my question. I want to tell Netbeans that a file with a .php extension should be treated as a javascript file, not change the highlighting for a given language. – user3640967 Aug 25 '15 at 10:42
