manoj sharma	Monday 14 September 2009 11:54:54 pm Hi guyz, is there any way through which i can make my search result highlighted with some color. the word which user uses should be highlighted. example: user has made a search on "web development". web development is search keyword, so whenever "web development" comes in the content or in the result.. web development should be highlighted with some color. i am using ezpublish 4.0.1 with ezflow and ezwebin. thanks & regards, Manoj Sharma

When you are displaying your results, writing something like: {foreach $results as $result} {str_replace( $keyword, concat( '<span style="color:red">', $keyword, '</span>' ), $result.name )} {/foreach} Where $results is your search array results, $result is each line of result, and $keyword is your search word. http://www.acidre.com

On this template, you may have something like: {section name=SearchResult loop=$search_result show=$search_result sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)} which is the equivalent of the foreach loop http://www.acidre.com
manoj sharma	Wednesday 16 September 2009 12:26:48 am Thanks Jean-Luc Nguyen for taking out time for my post. but had no luck with searchresult.tpl. Whatever changes i does on search.tpl or searchresult.tpl. is not viewable on frontend, and there are no override files for them either. as far as i have studies the code, ezpublish uses ezwebin/design/ezwebin/override/templates/line and files in it to show search result, for folder it will use folder.tpl and for article it will use article.tpl. what i want is a common script to highlight the searched word (both in heading and in description).. is there any common way to do this? Thanks & Regards manoj
Jean-Luc Nguyen	Wednesday 16 September 2009 12:47:23 am Hello, I think that before trying to highlight your search results, try to override default search templates; do not edit design/standard/templates/content/search.tpl and searchresult.tpl, but override them by creating them on your extension, something like extension/your_extension/design/your_frontoffice_design/templates/content/search.tpl and searchresult.tpl. http://www.acidre.com
