Exactly how do I use the sourcecode shortcode?

I can’t get the sourcecode shortcode to work. In the following, taken from the Code panel of a test post, the “sourcecode” section comes up as plain text (wrong), the “kyte.tv” section embeds the video (right), and the “code” section looks right. I got LaTeX embedding to work. What am I doing wrong here? Could you provide me with something to cut and paste into my Code panel that will format code the way it was introduced?
```
[sourcecode language=’css’]
#button {
font-weight: bold;
border: 2px solid #fff;
}
[/sourcecode]

[kyte.tv 6118]

<code>
#button {
font-weight: bold;
border: 2px solid #fff;
}
</code>
```

I got it to work with James’ csharp example in this thread, but I don’t know what the difference is.

And I got it to work with my own sample. Still don’t know what I did wrong before.

Is this issue “resolved”? If so could you please mark it so?

It shows up as “resolved” to me.

Yes you’re right today it’s marked “resolved”. :)

I had similar problem. It seems to be a cut-and-paste problem. Don’t copy the example, enter the quotes yourself: ‘css’ or “css” otherwise the wrong quote is used. See: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=15761&page&replies=2#post-116095
