Hi David,
Ok, a couple of questions.
1) Do you have the latest version of the extension? (available at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi)
2) Have you tried using the <syntaxhighlight> tag, as the extension's documentation states that the <source> tag is deprecated.
Regards, Daniel

I am not trying to do anything special - I just want the "easy, reliable" way to work :) I have removed all the tags (this is what I tried at the very beginning) and you can see that the template is not completed (the {{{ }}}} is visible on the UseCMakeListsTemplate page). See what I mean?
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
Is there a specific reason why you don't want the syntax highlighting on the template page? If not, I would suggest leaving out the includeonly tags entirely and just letting the source tag do its thing.
If there is, you might try putting <noinclude></noinclude> in the middle of the source tag (to "break" it in the template), but I'm not entirely certain that will work either.
Certainly the easiest, and most reliable, way is to just let the tags resolve on the template page.

Thanks for the quick reply Daniel. Sorry, the nowiki tags were there as a result of my experimenting. I replaced them with includeonly tags but you can see the result is now different but still not correct. Any more ideas?

Hi,
Take the <nowiki></nowiki> tags out of your template. If you don't want
it
highlighting on the template page itself, use <includeonly> tags around
the
<source> tags instead.

Hi all, I am trying to make a template which contains syntax highlighting.
I made a template:
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Template:VTKCMakeLists
I then tried to use this template with: {{VTKCMakeLists|Thing1|Thing2}}
But you can see here: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Sandbox/UseCMakeListsTemplate
that it does not trigger the source code to be highlighted, but
rather
actually includes the source tag as part of the text on the page. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!
