string highlighting

I'm working on my personal site and came across a problem. I have a tutorial section that will contain PHP tuts. Obvisioualy it contain PHP code. I want that code the syntax highlighted. So I'm placing all code in <span class="php">..code..</span> so I want to make a regex that will get that code from inside that tag and do a highlight_string() on it or something. I'm storing the tuts in a db with all the tuts HTML.

Thanks guys.

How about (completely untested):

<span class=\"php\">.*?</span>
