Re: data from db

You can then use str_replace or ereg_replace to change the text to the color you want. For example... $search_word = "bryan"; $your_output = "The person searched for the word " . $search_word . ", so I want to make it a different color"; $your_colored_output = str_replace($search_word, "<font color="red">" . $search_word . "</font>", $your_output); echo $your_colored_output; Something like that should do the trick (I haven't tested that code though). - Jamie
