I want the second window to display the sentence "I like apple and banana, and orange and maybe even pears?" with also "Banana" and "pears" highlighted in red, that is ignoring the fact that the comma or question mark follows the words. Is there any way to do this without adding items to the array such as "banana," or "pears?"
const heroes = [" banana ", " pears ", " apple ", " orange "];
var regexFromMyArray = new RegExp(heroes.join("|"), 'ig');
$('#board').keyup(function(event){
document.getElementById('dummy').innerHTML = $('#board').html().replace(regexFromMyArray,function(str){
return '<span class="highlighted">'+str+'</span>'
})
})
var target = $("#dummy");
$("#board").scroll(function() {
target.prop("scrollTop", this.scrollTop)
.prop("scrollLeft", this.scrollLeft);
});.color-red{
color: #F00;
}
.original {
position:static;
width: 70%;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 1em;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
height:100px;
margin:2px;
border:1px solid black;

}
#dummy{
color:black;
}
#board{

.original span.highlighted {
