Search Terms Won't Highlight

I have tried several methods to highlight search terms in the results page, but have had no luck.

I have tried several different plugins, and javascript snipits I found online, and all of them have the same result:
– Everything works fine on the Twenty Ten WordPress theme.
– On my theme search terms in my Page titles highlight, but not in the page content (see here: http://i.imgur.com/9ns1Y.jpg )

Because of the above I have concluded it is a problem with my theme. Here is the relevant section of my index.php:

<!-- Go through every page and display it-->
			<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
			<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>

				<!-- Title of Page -->
				<h2 class="title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>

				<!-- Posted by / edited by -->
				<div class="postmeta">
					<span class="timestamp">Posted by <?php the_author(); ?> on <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?>. Last modified by <?php the_modified_author(); ?> on <?php mdv_last_modified('F jS, Y'); ?>.</span>
					<br/><br/>
				</div>

				<!-- The Content of the Page -->
				<div class="entry">
					<?php the_content(); ?>
				</div>
			</div>
			<br/><br/>
			<?php endwhile; ?>
			<?php else : ?>

I have settled on this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/highlight-search-terms/

and as seen in my code I use <?php post_class();?> so the hentry div is in there (and titles get highlighted).

I have no idea why the content isn’t getting effected.
