It shouldn't, without a syntax/php.vim file somewhere. As noted, this file is only sourced as-needed; is the output of the :scriptnames command you gave from a Vim with the php file loaded and syntax highlighting on as you describe? In that Vim, what does this command say? :verbose set syntax? filetype? And what is the value of b:current_syntax? -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
