Highlighted Text ?

FWIW the red highlighted text does not relate to any search terms I have done in the past.

It's sort of like reading a book where a small child has crayoned around the odd word - not the end of the world, just makes the reading experiance less enjoyable.

ok, ok, meters and teasing aside there is a *Contact Us* down at the bottom of the page. That sends a report directly to an admin desk, and they will be able to at least direct it to someone who can help. This is one I have no clue on!

I had a similar issue but have just resolved it today.

In my case the word was underlined with dots rather than highlighted red. I use Firefox so this may account for the difference.

The clue:
When I mouse over the word (mast in this case), a small box appears offering to look up other articles on “mast”. Clicking brings up a string of search results. So it appears to be a keyword with the link generated by the site or administrator.

So I went to the search page, and found a menu choice for “Tag search”. Selecting this shows me a page called “Tag cloud” with a listing of 70 words and the heading “These are the 70 most used thread tags”. I checked a few posts, and in each case when any one of those 70 words appears it is highlighted in the article text.

To resolve:
Go to Quick Links, Edit Options and scroll down to “Auto link popular tags”. Select Off.

It couldn't be that someone is practicing on you David, could it?

Thanks Steve, now managed to get rid of the dashes under the tag words
