When the PHP documentations where using DocBook-XSL we used to add a customization layer to add special "tags" around <programlisting>, and then post process the output to syntax highlight and format examples (php, xml, ..). For example with <programlisting role="php"><?php.. ?></programlisting> the customization layer would generate "<phpcode><?php.. ?></phpcode>" that was then post processed with other applications. Currently we are using "PhD" (PHP based Docbook Renderer) which handles all these kinds of things :) -Hannes
