Help on pregreplace

Hi there,

I am highlighting keywords with the help of pregreplace. This works 
great with one limitation. If the word that has to be replaced contains 
a slash, preg throws an error. So far I could not find a fix. Can 
someone help?

Here is the code:

   $pattern = "/\b($words)\b/is";
   $replace = '<span style="background:#FF0000;color:#FCCCCC;">\\1</span>';
   return preg_replace($pattern,$replace,$str);

Thank you in advance,

Merlin
