SyntaxHighlighter is null

Question

I am using SyntaxHighlighter. I followed the installation steps and I'm receiving a few errors in the firebug console:

TypeError: SyntaxHighlighter is null

ReferenceError: XRegExp is not defined

I imported the necessary files.

Markup

Why I am getting these errors?

Answer 1

It sounds like you need to put your XRegExp.js reference before the shCore.js reference. Order does matter when there's a dependency. One of the most common examples being that you have to load jQuery before you can use jQueryUI.
