您可以使用 jquery 高亮显示效果。

但是，如果您对原始javascript代码感兴趣，请查看我得到的内容，只需将粘贴到HTML中，打开文件并单击“突出显示” - 这应该突出显示单词“fox”。性能方面，我认为这适用于小文本和单个重复（如您指定的那样）

function highlight(text) {
  var inputText = document.getElementById("inputText");
  var innerHTML = inputText.innerHTML;
  var index = innerHTML.indexOf(text);
  if (index >= 0) { 
   innerHTML = innerHTML.substring(0,index) + "<span class='highlight'>" + innerHTML.substring(index,index+text.length) + "</span>" + innerHTML.substring(index + text.length);
   inputText.innerHTML = innerHTML;
  }
}

.highlight {
  background-color: yellow;
}

<button onclick="highlight('fox')">Highlight</button>

<div id="inputText">
  The fox went over the fence
</div>

用replace

我看到这个答案获得了一些普及，我想我可以补充一下。您也可以轻松使用替换

"the fox jumped over the fence".replace(/fox/,"<span>fox</span>");

或者对于多次出现（与问题无关，但在注释中被问到），您只需添加替换正则表达式即可。global

"the fox jumped over the other fox".replace(/fox/g,"<span>fox</span>");

希望这对感兴趣的评论者有所帮助。

将 HTML 替换为整个网页

要替换整个网页的HTML，您应该参考文档的正文。innerHTML

document.body.innerHTML

这里提供的解决方案非常糟糕。

1. 您不能使用正则表达式，因为这样，您可以在html标记中搜索/突出显示。
2. 您不能使用正则表达式，因为它不能与 UTF*（任何包含非拉丁/英语字符的字符）一起使用。
3. 你不能只做一个innerHTML.replace，因为当字符具有特殊的HTML表示法时，这不起作用，例如 for &， for <， for >， for ä， for ö for ü for ß， 等等。&<>äöüß

您需要执行的操作：

遍历 HTML 文档，查找所有文本节点，获取 ，获取突出显示文本的位置（如果它应该不区分大小写，则使用可选选项），将所有内容追加为 ，将匹配的文本追加为高亮范围，并对文本节点的其余部分重复（突出显示字符串可能会在字符串中多次出现）。textContentindexOftoLowerCaseindexoftextNodetextContent

这是代码：

                        matched = nodeVal.substr(foundIndex, myToken.length);

                        if (begin)

                            textNode = document.createTextNode(begin);

                    } // Whend

                } // Next i 
            }; // End Function checkAndReplace 

            function iterator(p)
            {
                if (p === null) return;

                var children = Array.prototype.slice.call(p.childNodes), i, cur;

                if (children.length)
                {
                    for (i = 0; i < children.length; i++)
                    {
                        cur = children[i];
                        if (cur.nodeType === 3)
                        {
                            checkAndReplace(cur, tokens, allClassName, allSensitiveSearch);
                        }
                        else if (cur.nodeType === 1)
                        {
                            iterator(cur);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }; // End Function iterator

            iterator(options[id.container]);
        } // End Function highlighter
        ;


        internalHighlighter(
            {
                container: container
                , all:
                    {
                        className: "highlighter"
                    }
                , tokens: [
                    {
                        token: highlightText
                        , className: "highlight"
                        , sensitiveSearch: false
                    }
                ]
            }
        ); // End Call internalHighlighter 

    } // End Function highlight

};

然后你可以像这样使用它：

function TestTextHighlighting(highlightText)
{
    var container = document.getElementById("testDocument");
    InstantSearch.highlight(container, highlightText);
}

下面是一个示例 HTML 文档

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Example of Text Highlight</title>
        <style type="text/css" media="screen">
            .highlight{ background: #D3E18A;}
            .light{ background-color: yellow;}
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="testDocument">
            This is a test
            <span> This is another test</span>
            äöüÄÖÜäöüÄÖÜ
            <span>Test123&auml;&ouml;&uuml;&Auml;&Ouml;&Uuml;</span>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

顺便说一句，如果您在数据库中搜索，
例如 [你不应该这样做，你应该使用全文搜索或Lucene]，然后你可以用\转义每个字符，并添加一个SQL转义语句，这样你就会找到像表达式的特殊字符。LIKEWHERE textField LIKE CONCAT('%', @query, '%')

例如：

WHERE textField LIKE CONCAT('%', @query, '%') ESCAPE '\'

@query的价值不是但是'%completed%''%\c\o\m\p\l\e\t\e\d%'

（经过测试，可与SQL-Server和PostgreSQL以及支持ESCAPE的所有其他RDBMS系统配合使用）
