I have a search function in my app where the user can enter one or more search terms (like 'Chase Bank') and I search a number of tables for matches. I have everything worked out and am getting the results I want except that I need to be able to highlight those terms (bold, maybe different font color, etc) in the results displayed in a table. I could have sworn there was an example of this in one of the sample apps with the platform but can't find it now. I'm assuming I need to find all instances of the terms (case insensitive) and wrap them with some html.
Anybody done this? Have some pointers? Thanks...

Hi Greg,
I found here in my old things a jQuery plugin to do something like that.
I just implemented it in a simple and quick application screen to make it easy for you to use.
It's just something like this:
I didn't had time to do more tests, but I'm sure it works.
Hope it helps and just give me some feedback..
Cheers,
