CodeMirror 2 - Highlight only (no editor)

Question

Can CodeMirror 2 be used to highlight code from a DIV or PRE tag (without the editor)?

Like CodeMirror 1 used to be able to do with the hightlightText() function? For example here: http://codemirror.net/1/highlight.html, after you press run highlight (the highlighted text below)

Also can it highlight code from a inline element, like <code>, and keep the results inline, like Google's Prettify does?

Answer 1

A much nicer and easier solution is to just set the readOnly property of the CodeMirror instance to true, like this:

$('.code').each(function() {      var $this = $(this),         $code = $this.html();      $this.empty();      var myCodeMirror = CodeMirror(this, {         value: $code,         mode: 'javascript',         lineNumbers: !$this.is('.inline'),         readOnly: true     });  }); 

Just add the class .code to the tag containing the code and it will be syntax highlighted. I've also added support for inline code, by using the class .inline.
