The problem lies in, if you search for at term like "image", then the simple replace would mess up a line like:
<img scr="./image/picture.jpg">This is a nice image of something.. Would turn into <img scr="./<span style="background:#FF0000">image</span>/picture.jpg">This is a nice <span style="background:#FF0000">image</span> of something.. And that doesn't look nice in any browser.. <thomas/> > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Tifer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 16. august 2002 22:49 > To: ActiveServerPages > Subject: Re: Google Highlight > > > If you have the text that's going to be output, replace matching > terms like such (this is VERY simple - it doesn't take into account > the fact that the term may appear inside a link, etc): > > strText = "your text that will be output" > > Response.Write REPLACE(strText, "your", "<span style=""background: > #FF0000'"">your</span>") > > Of course, you'd make the word "your" dynamic and probably > wouldn't choose > such an ugly bg color, but you get the point... > > Chris Tifer > http://www.emailajoke.com > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Thomas V.
