Answer by William Robertson for Goodbye, Prettify. Hello highlight.js! Swapping out our Syntax Highlighter

There is something a bit odd with PL/SQL (or SQL - I'm not sure whether PL/SQL is actually supported. It seems to be sadly unpopular with syntax highlighting plugins.)

A quoted SQL statement seems to defeat the quoting, but only when an earlier line ends with a semicolon.

select blah into blahblah from blahblahblah;  -- Semicolon here seems to do itxxx := 'select select';Quoting is now reversed.

Looking at other SQL-related issues, I see Syntax highlighting isn't always present in the entire code block also has an example where quoting is broken by a quote that includes a SQL keyword.

Edit:Marking as Lua seems to work better with quoting:

select blah into blahblah from blahblahblah;  -- This is a commentxxx := 'select select';Quoting is not reversed.
