[php] Provide HTML tag matching/language service support

[adred]

I don't know if it's just me but there's no support for HTML tag matching. If I click on div, every instance of div are highlighted instead of the closing </div>, which is a PITA.

@adred Maybe you are on an old version?

[adred]

OS X Yosemite. The same behaviour in Ubuntu 14.04.
VS Code version is 0.10.8

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client implements tag matching for the HTML code in .php files.

Please give it a try and if it doesn't work for your use case, help to improve the extension and file an issue there.

@aeschli Thanks for help, but intelephense isn't working for tag completion.

I installed vincaslt.highlight-matching-tag instead, which seems to do the job.

But nevertheless, this should be a core feature out of the box.

[aeschli]

@petewulf intelliphense also has code completion in html-tags in PHP:

But this issue is about tag highlighting, not completion, so lets not continue the discussion here. If intelephense's code completion doesn't work in your scenario, file improvement requests directly against https://github.com/bmewburn/vscode-intelephense

[sshreya0808]

I am facing the same issue. Not sure how to handle this. This is for react js app in visual studio code.

[aeschli]

@sshreya0808 This issue is about PHP. For React, please file a new issue with your code sample.

[sshreya0808]

@aeschli... Thanks

[ivanrojasdev]

you know if there is a plugin for Visual Studio Code, which allows me to highlight opening and closing tags as well as the sublime text BracketHighlighter

[adalgdev]

All of the suggestions are not working. 2yrs... Please fix this

[aeschli]

@adal6a Please try the Intelliphense extension and please file issues against the extension with a code sample that shows what's not working for you.

Open User Settings, and make sure you have following set to true:

"editor.occurrencesHighlight": true,

[toddicus13]

"editor.matchBrackets": true,
"editor.occurrencesHighlight": true

[Ashu131]

Checked that settings

"editor.matchBrackets": true,
"editor.occurrencesHighlight": true

But Problem still the same @toddicus13 @aeschli @aditya43

[toddicus13]

Ya @Ashu131 ...seems to only work in html files not php.

[Ashu131]

Okay. It worked for me @ramya-rao-a

[LucaChiappino]

I don't know if there is some relation with this discussion but when the cursor is on a div, the vertical red line (on the left in the image) that supposed to indicate the closing tag is not following the correct div but his parent

I tried with php, html and Javascript and same error.

[KamasamaK]

@LucaChiappino That is the highlighted indent guide and is unrelated to tag matching. The placement is intentional.

[roblourens]

As @aeschli says,

marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client implements tag matching for the HTML code in .php files.

And it's not likely we will try to support this out of the box so I will close this.
