Search Keyword Highlight - Joomla Search

[apellow]

I'm looking for a way to have the words used in the Joomla search to be highlighted in the article selected from the search results.

The plugin, Search Engine Keywords Highlight, only works when you arrive at the article from an external search engine like Google or Yahoo. I want this capability when you search from within my Joomla site.

Anyone know how to do this???

Thanks

In 1.5.9, the search term is enclosed by:

Code: Select all

<span class="highlight">keyword</span>

maybe you just need to put :

Code: Select all

.highlight {
background-color:#f7fc34;
}

in your css.

The search term is indeed enclosed as <span class="highlight">keyword</span> but only on the search results page. If I actually open one of the articles indicated, the article doesn't have any keywords highlighted.

I'm looking for exactly the same plugin

Yes that is what I am looking for, a site search that highlights the words on the actual page when you navigate to it. If it can be done with an outside search engine navigating to your pages, why can't it be done internally.

Another good search function that is needed is a highlight on page search box. I think this can be done in Java Script, but I don't know how to integrate that in to content pages. Would it have to be coded into the actual template?

Anyone...

anybody figure out the solution for this topic?

@ranwili
it only changes the highlight color of the keywords in the search results but it does highlight the keywords in the articles

Sorry for this questions.
I really need to have the feature highlight is the page of search results, that the pages open.

I have joomla 1.5.22 is installed on the component JXFinder (no longer supported). This software has the required function, but has big problems in the research stage. If I have a word composed of AMC and AMC-56 and I try, gets nothing.

So I am looking for other components. I have tried many and all the best, but nobody has the highlights on every page.

How can I do? There is a component ah hoc? Can I put a PHP script? if you like?
