Hi all!
I have a text highlight function which does not behave exactly as
needed. Behavior is logical but result is cumbersome.
Instead of replacing the portion of the text with the same portion of
text with some highlighting code added before and after, it replaces the
said text with the chunk
Here is the function:
function highlight_text($text, $highlight) {
return eregi_replace($highlight, span class=highlight . $highlight .
/span, $text);
}
In this case, if the text to highglight is:
MacOS X Super Gizmo
And a client searches for the string macos, the result will be:
span
, because the string searched for is of a
different case.
But thanks for helping.

Eregi_replace conducts a case insensitive SEARCH but how the REPLACE
operates has nothing to do with it.
If you use ereg_replace, then it is most obviously not going to replace
MacOS with span class=highlightmacos/span or even span
