I sat down in front of my computer and did some searches on this site but I got frustrated how hard it was to find the search term within all the search results, so I made a search term highlighter plugin and it’s working quite well
. Go ahead and try a search
. As you can see the search term entered in the search form is now highlighted and much easier to find

.
I don’t know if there is such a plugin already available but I rather write my own . If there are any interest in this plugin I’ll release it.
Thanks to Aidan Lister for the hight light code. And to P Huang for pointing out a bug
.

Thanks for making so many great themes and plugins available free. I think this search term highligher plugin will be very cool to have.
Just a possible bug – after searching for a term, if I try to click the “Read More” link, I get an error because it is pointing to: http://www.fahlstad.se/2006/08/24/search-%3Cspan%20style='background:#ffff66'%3Eterm%3C/span%3E-highlighter/#more-269 which the server doesn’t seem to like.

I would definitely be interested in such a plugin, looks and works great after my turbo-test at your site.

Excellent plugin idea. I haven’t seen one like it yet. Frederik always delivers! Vote me in, if you’re considering to offer it to the general public.
