Sebastion,
The code below should do it. Note that this method (both your version and
mine) will choke if the keyword list contains "pan" or "coldfusion,fusion"
because of interference between the replacement of a string and the added
<span> text, or between the replacement of one string and the replacement of
another.
Completely unrelated note (I just didn't want to send out a separate message to
deal with this):
If you post a question to multiple lists, please indicate that you've done so.

<!--- Set the highlight style --->
<style type="text/css">
...highlight { background-color: yellow }
</style>
<cfset Keywords = 'cold,web,server'>
<cfset OpenTag = '<span class="highlight">'>
<cfset CloseTag = '</span>'>
<cfloop index="x" from="1" to="#ListLen(Keywords)#">
<cfset HighlightedWord = OpenTag & ListGetAt(Keywords,x) & CloseTag>
<cfset String = REReplaceNoCase(String, "("&ListGetAt(Keywords,x)&")",
OpenTag&"\1"&CloseTag, "ALL")>
</cfloop>
<cfoutput>#String#</cfoutput>
