If it's certain defined words you wish to emphasise then you can do it using the same method as above.

e.g. if you wanted to turn any reference to your name into a simple, clickable email link or simply style it…

PHP Code:


		
			
$text = ereg_replace("Your Name","<a href=\"mailto:yourname@yourdomain.com\">Your Name</a>",$text);

or

PHP Code:


		
			
$text = ereg_replace("Your Name","<strong>Your Name</strong>",$text);

If you want to allow users/clients to input their own data and have styling applied as and when they want then that's when things get a tad more complex - and I bow out, having hit my ceiling.

You might want to check out the PHP sections of Hotscripts.com to see what's available.
You may well find precisely the facility you're after.
