RE: Highlighting a Search Term
Just append a url variable containing the search term to the link that opens the next page so know what word(s) to highlight. Eg... http://link.to/my.doc?searchterm=#urlencodedformat(form.searchterm)#"> link to page ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

Highlighting a Search Term
Ok, I've got a search that looks through several fields in a database and returns a list of dynamically generated docs (Newsletters, mostly). Current search is here: http://www.nelsonmullins.com/news/nelson-mullins-news.cfm Search for "medicare", for example. I'd like to be able to click a specific doc in these results, and when taken to it, the original search term "medicare" for is highlighted.
