I'm not sure exactly what you want to do...

Do you want to replace all of the marked a's:

                                ^         ^         ^

or do you just want to replace the word 'a'?


If you just want to replace 'bare' a's then this might work:


$newline =~ s!\s+($pattern)\s+!<font color="red">$1</font>!g
