JavaScript syntax highlighter with language auto-detection.

@leahayes this might not be necessarily a good idea, as the page would flash unstyled code while parsing catches up in background.
@leahayes no one has done any research on that. What problem is should solve?
@smikloso 8.1 (with Swift) is live. Though if we really did it "asap" Swift would miss some important contributions.
Are there any Swift fans? We're looking for a *short and neat* language snippet to display on highlightjs.org/ (use gist to submit!)

After longer-than-anticipated infrastructure update highlight.js 8.1 is live on the site highlightjs.org/ and npm (wait for CDNs).

Got really easy syntax highlighting on my upcoming blog site with @highlightjs. Longest part was just choosing which CSS file I liked best.

@isagalaev I use highlight.js, although I didn't even know I had other choices.

Also a poll: on which CDNs you'd like to have highlight.js besides Yandex'?

Coming in 8.0: our default styles now use a unique prefix for class names, so we won't mess with .comment and .title in your styles.

Coming in 8.0: restricted subset of languages for auto-detection. No more accidental "perl" in your blog about "java".
Coming in 8.0: aliases for languages. We now recognize your class="js", class="language-html", etc.
We have a lot of new stuff coming in the next release. Help us test the 8.0 beta! groups.google.com/d/topic/hi…

We're going to release a beta version of the upcoming major 8.0 release next week: groups.google.com/d/msg/high….
