Warning with highlighting ... I used : <?php $text = preg_replace('/('.$q.')/i','<span class=highlighting "">$1</span>' , $text); ?> Because this line do not allow to highlight uppercase and lowercase correctly (transform uppercase to lowercase for exemple) <?php $text = str_ireplace( $q , '<span class=highlighting "">'.$q.'</span>', $text); ?> But when $q contain some regex you have some problems ... for exemple : <?php $q = '('; ?> So you must use preg_replace to highlight correctly the text and you must create a function for escape bad regex caracters ! I think that a better function can be found but this works I guess : <?php function regex_escape( $q ) { return preg_replace('/([\[\]\(\)\{\}\-\.\*\?\|\^\$])/', '\$1', $q); } ?> --was-- Warning with highlighting ...
