algorithm to highlight required words in a paragraph

[gomsi]

hi,

i have a paragraph where i have to insert <markand </marktags to
highlight the required words.i am implementing it in c++ i am
currently doing it as follows..

i take the corresponding position at which the word occurs within the
paragraph and the word length and store it in a map(STL)..and start
inserting the tags after i scan the paragraph for the words....
although it works fine for larger words problem occurs when the word
to be marked are like "bidder dd d"..the tags start overlapping and
become mixed up within the paragraph.. can someone provide a good
algorithm and help please... asap..

If you're doing this in C++, why are you asking in a PHP newsgroup?

Try a C++ newsgroup.

sorry. but all that i need is an algorithm not the exact implementation

Try a C++ newsgroup. C++ has different features, and the algorithm may
be different.

This group is for asking about how to code in PHP - not trying to find
an algorithm for C++.
