Find and Replace

[NateBro]

i have a search function on my website for a text file...

for ($i = 0; $i <= $#data; $i++){

 		if ($data[$i] =~ /$advance/) {
    		print "<p align='left'><b><font size='2' face='Arial' color='#66CCFF'>$data[$i]</font></b></p>\n";
    		
    	} 
}

but i want the $advance var to be replaced in the PRINT ""; statement with <span style='background-color: yellow'>$advance</span> so it will display the $advance var highlighted.

~Thanks Nate_Bro

for ($i = 0; $i <= $#data; $i++){
   if ($data[$i] =~ /$advance/) {
      $data[$i] =~ s/$advance/<span style='background-color: yellow'>$advance</span>/g;
      print "<p align='left'><b><font size='2' face='Arial' color='#66CCFF'>$data[$i]</font></b></p>\n";
   }
}
