nxhtml mode with php breaks in emacs24

[Russell Sim]

Hello, I am having some problems with nxhtml mode and emacs 24. Once you open a file it seems to open but in the background is throwing some errors, as a result there is no syntax hilighting of any PHP :( and editing is slowed substantially to the point where it is basically not usable.

Thanks for the bug report, Russell. I have not had time to test Emacs 24 myself so I have not seen this problem.

Could you please try the html-mumamo-mode instead of nxhtml-mumamo-mode?

[Russell Sim (russell-sim)]

good idea! I set the default mode using
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.php$" . html-mumamo-mode) auto-mode-alist))

but html-mumamo-mode seems to produce the same error,

Sample PHP file that has at least one error every time.

[Russell Sim (russell-sim)]

Contents of emacs messages buffer when loading sample file. I have tried to turn up the debugging messages in the hope that someone can see an obvious problem.

[lborgman (lennart-borgman)]

Thanks Russell. I have just installed the released version of Emacs 24.1. I got another error message with your example (starting for "emacs -Q -l nxhtml/autostart.el".

It does not look simple at all. For some reason the syntax table was nil.

I do not have time to debug it now. If someone wants to dig into this it would be great.

[Tjitte de Vries (vrieskist)]

I would like to say that I still have the bug as shown by Lennart.
I'm using Emacs 24.2.1 (from Macports) and nxhtml 2.09 beta (from github).

[Mathias Tausen (mathias-tausen)]

I'd like to point out that this is still an issue - I'm using emacs 24.3.1 and nxhtml 2.09beta.
