<?phphighlight_file("file.php");?>

Other than viewing the file before it has been uploaded, or with a certain online program, you cannot view the php source of any file.You may however, like Skym said, highlight a file. This means you should read the content of a PHP file into a string, and then use the highlifght function to print it coloured. But you even can just leave the colorise, if the file was read into a string you would be able to read the content by just printing or echoing it

<?phphighlight_file("file.php");?>

I am not sure, but I assume it should Actually would be logical it should, else you're able to view the source of everyone else
