To know which 'filetype' has been detected for the current editfile, see
:help expr-option

if &filetype == ""
" no filetype has been detected (NoName buffer?)
elseif &filetype == "php"
" do something
elseif &filetype == "phtml"
" do something else
else
" this is probably not PHP
endif

Or did I misunderstand your question? If I did, please explain more clearly.


Best regards,
