How to make a function that bold a given word if it is found on the string, than return the string again

$formattedString = Bold('foo',$myString);

Any help would be appreciated

Do you mean like:

function Bold($text, $str) {
    return str_replace($text, "<strong>".$text."</strong>", $str);
}
echo Bold("test", "this is a test");
