I want to highlight text with javascript, and it works succesful with colors, but I don't know how to do it with characters.
I attached a part of my code: the result I got(yellow highlight), and the result I want to get.

You do not give enough information to answer this question. How do you know what 'this' is in this.style.background?
But if you can recover the text (the 'this') we can add █ in front and after the text
Code:
<body>
<p id="demo"> I will display text </p>

<script>
let text = document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = '&block;' +text+'&block;';
</script>
</body>
