* 1. Is there any way to do it now?
2. Are you going to add it in the next versions?

* Hi,
Since HTML4 and HTML5 share a lot of elements/attributes, there is partial
highlighting for HTML5 in version 0.9.12.
* If you need complete HTML5 highlight support, you can easily update GeSHi to
version 1.0.8.10 by downloading it from here: [http://qbnz.com/highlighter/](http://qbnz.com/highlighter/)
and replacing the “geshi” folder located in “/wp-content/plugins/wp-syntax” with
the one you downloaded from above.
* The “lang” attribute you’ll want to use is “html5”:
`HTML5
code here.
