A couple of months ago there was a post about getting the search words used, to be highlighted on the returned list.

It works great in, yeah me the old fart, version 3 that I am using.
As support mentioned back then, the highlighting would NOT be done on any fields viewed as HTML.

Also mentioned by support that they would get it fixed in the next release.
My question, has that be addressed at all. Has the script been modified to accomodate HTML viewed fields.

The search works for everything, just the highlighting is missing on found email fields, and text fields viewed as html.

Dale,
the problem with HTML fields highlighting is that you can easily break HTML code.

If someone search for a word which is also a part of HTML tag you break the whole HTML trying to highlight this piece.

Smart HTML highlighting should skip all HTML tags and highlight plain text only.
At this moment we don't have such a smart function.
Btw, this would also enable "more ..." link on HTML fields.
