Online PHP Formatter
Format, compress, and check PHP code indentation, brackets, and quotes
Online PHP Formatter
The online PHP formatter helps organize PHP indentation and whitespace. It supports bracket-based indentation formatting, whitespace compression, and basic bracket and quote matching checks, making it useful for quickly cleaning up PHP code snippets and standardizing indentation.
PHP Code Formatting
The formatter uses bracket structure to organize indentation automatically. Functions, classes, conditions, and loops are displayed with clearer hierarchy. You can choose 2-space, 4-space, 8-space, or Tab indentation.
PHP Compression
Compression removes comments and unnecessary whitespace while preserving string literals, producing more compact PHP code.
Basic Validation and Error Location
The tool checks common structural problems such as unmatched brackets, unclosed quotes, and unfinished comments and reports the affected line. The location feature can select the problematic position directly in the input area. This is a structural check rather than a compiler-level PHP syntax validator, so actual PHP execution should be used for final verification.
Common Use Cases
- Clean up PHP code with inconsistent indentation.
- Standardize basic PHP indentation across a project or team.
- Check basic bracket and quote matching problems.
Important Notes
For PHP files mixed with HTML, it is recommended to process only the pure PHP portion to avoid unintended changes to template markup.
Privacy and Data Security
All processing is performed locally in the browser. Your PHP code is not uploaded to the server.
