highlighting text matches

[MRB]

Hi,

can anyone please help with the following...

Id like to search thro the text of a page and change the color (or preferably STYLE) of ALL words or part words that matched a certain text string, lets say"my text".

So that if "my text" appeared in the document more than once, every occurence would appear in a different colour (or style).

I understand the principle here but dont know the syntax, I think that by looping thro' 'document.all' I can change the style of a particular element, but how could I do this with a peice of text?

many thanks to anyone who can give me any pointers.
