How to format HTML in VSCODE

Question

I have read many similar questions on SO, but none answer my problem.

I have a .php file with this content:

<?php something(); ?> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col"> Hello World! </div> </div> </div>

And I would like to reformat either the php or the html code, either globally or the selection.

I have tried all the Format document option, but it does not work.

Ctrl+Shift+p, Format document

If I change the extension for .html, then it works.

hey you might need to install github.com/Dickurt/vscode-php-formatter/wiki - give it a try! — Matthias Reumann

Yup, it looks like a duplicate, however, the linked question does not really give an answer to this one :( — nowox

There are many extensions in the marketplace of VSCODE for formatting the code. Try one of them. I might even recommend Prettier ext. Try others as well you might one usefull
