Here is a snippet that I found in the internet that adds a class to specific substring of a paragraph.

Problem is that when the paragraph contains elements that are not words - like an element of type <img> , it eliminates this element completely from the outcome.

Can someone modify it to preserve the <img> element as well?

Thx

jQuery(document).ready( function ($) {

var oldString = 'some words',

newString = '<span class ="orang">some words</span>',

newText = $( "p:contains('some words')" ).text().replace(RegExp(oldString,"gi"),newString);

$( "p:contains('some words')" ).html(newText);

}); // jQuery(document).ready( function ($) {
