21 Bugs with Special Characters

Nice script, but when your search term includes a German “Umlaut” like “ü” (ü), all text vanishes!

Also I got strange results when the searched text includes several <div>s, <!— comments —>, and <?php ?> tags, don’t know which is responsible. Then the first <div> block is ignored and only text in the second is highlighted…

22 Too much highlighting

Highlighting is nice if the words you were looking for are in an obscure part of the page. However, it quickly becomes annoying when the searched words are very common in the main text. Precisely because those words stand out, it gets very hard to read the rest.

23 Parse, not hack

I’d recommend using XML/DOM parser instead of risky and costly regular expressions. And here you go – another advantage of using valid XHTML.

26 Use default highlighting color

Rather than defining colors to use for highlighting, you can use css colors to automatically specify whichever colors the browser uses by default for highlighting. Look here: http://bombingpixels.com/css/testing/css-user-interface.htm
