I want to highlight some words when reading from database, i use this simple script to read:
<%
sql = "SELECT * FROM TableName"

 


set r = Server.CreateObject("Adodb.Recordset")



r.open sql, Conn, 1, 3



Response.Write ""&r("username")&"<br>"



r.close : Set r = nothing
%>
 
how can i Highlight some certain characters within r("username") based on a querystring
 
Thanks.

are you wanting to use like a search function where if the username contains the letters within a querystring highlight that?

if so have a look at the forum search page, it does that exact thing.

you could simply convert the 'to highlight text' into a string and take a replace function to search for that word or words and replace them with <span class="highlight">that word</span> and it will highlight the words.
