[php] search higlight

[Anon]

I have made een search engine,
but I want this, if I do this:
news.php?id=1?search=test
All words that match with test must be in a red color. I thing something with eregi_replace but I don't know how.

Hi!

I´ve done something like this:

$data[$i] = eregi_replace($search, "<B>".$search."</B>",$data[$i]);

(it makes the search-string bold, for a red one it would have to be something like

$data[$i] = eregi_replace
($search, "<font color="FF0000">".$search."</font>",$data[$i]);

With: $data[$i] - Data from Db -Table (retrieved via a loop) and $search - the search-string

hope that helps...

One Problem: This eregi_replace is case insensitiv, it rewrites the search-string as it was given by the user, so the right case may be lost (depends on your sql-query...)

Hope that helps!
If I couldn´t make it clear, feel free to ask again!
