Good catch Rory. A regex replace would work better here.
$search = "body";
$find = "/\b" . $search . "\b/";
preg_replace ( $find, "<b>" . $search . "</b>", $html );
I don't think so. If I'm reading your code correctly you still have
the same problem, as I outlined above. There is no simple solution to
this. It either involves advanced regex(more advanced than my
understanding of it), or a proper parser.
<?pseudo_code
function highlight_html_string($needle, $haystack);
$retval = "";
$i = 0;
while($i < strlen($haystack)){
$str = get_text_between_certain_point_and_first_instance_of_<($i);
$str = preg_replace(what john said above);
$str .= get_tag_text($i);
$retval .= $str;
$i += strlen($str);
}
return $retval;
?>
< won't be picked up as a word boundry (\b).
