Search terms / words continue to show in red

Yesterday I did a search in the DL forum for "MSP" and "security". It found the thread I wanted and, as expected, those terms appeared in red in posts within that thread when I entered it from the search results page.

However, today I'm still seeing those same terms in red in at least every place they appear in the DL forum. This includes new posts that were made well after my search.

I'm using safari on an iPad2 with the full FT website. I think I restarted my ipad after the search, but I'm not sure.

ADDED: It seems to be happening throughout FT, not just on the DL forum. Just now I saw red for the words "MSP" and "security" in this post.

ADDED AGAIN: After my edit above, the red disappeared on this post.

Never seen it. Must be a bad cookie.

When I search on a keyword within a post, the word is bold and highlighted in red.

In this thread, I searched for security. What I got (and get normally) is:

"Yesterday I did a search in the DL forum for "MSP" and "security". It found the thread I wanted and, as expected, those terms appeared in red in posts within that thread when I entered it from the search results page."

After I replied with this post, its back to:

When I look at your post now--not having done a search for well over 24 hours--I see every instance of the words "MSP" and "security" in red, including in my post that you quoted.

Did you just edit it? My quote and your post are different, with the fourth and fifth paragraphs now gone from your post, although now the only red I see is the word security once, in the third paragraph of my quote of your post.

I believe I did edit.

With search, I get the bolder, red search terms in posts. As soon as I perform an edit or reply function, the highlighting is gone.

Not for me. I still see the words "MSP" and "security" in red in this thread, very time they appear.

ADDED: When I first made this post, there was no red in it, but the red appeared (and did not disappear elsewhere) when I refreshed.

When I edited it just now (the two lines above this one), the red was gone, but reappeared when I clicked to edit the post again.

Then the red was all gone again from this post when I clicked "save" to edit it again, but once more when I reloaded the page, the red in this post returned (and did not disappear from earlier posts).

The only red words I'm seeing are those that are so formatted, like here. I wonder if this might not be related to cache or cookies?

This is also happening on another VB site so I think we should be able to fix.

This happened to me about a month ago. Logging out and in again cleared it up for me.

lol yes.

the letter X by itself is highlighted for me. But not in this post for some reason. (ETA, it is highlighted now also, but not after an edit of a post in that post. I have to refresh the thread and it's highlighted.)

A while ago, I think I searched the united forum to find the "Mileage Plus X" thread.

I'm probably not going to bother to clear ft cookies/content or log out/in just for this.

I'll find an example and post an image of it.

First attachment is when viewing this thread, but not when viewing it as a single post:

2nd example is post 1 in this thread:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...ng-vs-nat.html

I think this is where I first noticed it and quoted the post to see if it was in the post or just what I was seeing. It's not in the post. But it certainly had me wondering about it. When I saw it again in that Hawaiian Airlines thread, I decided to search for it.
