$find = "hi";
$contents = implode(null, file($logfile));
$contents = preg_replace("/($find)/i", "<b
style=\"color:black;background-color:#FFCC66\">\\1</b>", $contents);
echo $contents;that will replace any $find with your highlighted b. Notice the i at the end preg expression, that tells it to ignore case. The nice part about that is that if you search for HI, if finds hi, it will highlight hi, not HI.
