      I am trying to get N++ to recognize files with this pattern as javascript files:

      _js.php
      

      so the file could be something like:

      global_includes_js.php
      

      or

      my_awesome_stuff_js.php
      

      I found this thread: http://superuser.com/questions/413524/how-do-i-get-notepad-to-associate-a-file-type-with-a-language

      and tried it but it didn’t work. I tried both restarting N++ and reopening the files.

      Is it possible to match the end of the filename and the extension, or can it only match the extension?

        Use something like

        example1.js-php
        

        or

        example2.js_php
        

        and associate that extension (i.e. exclud leading dot) with JavaScript using the instructions of the aforementioned superuser.com thread.
