I think you need to store when the user was last logged in to the forum (I'm sure you could write a little function that would update that date everytime they viewed a page...), then just highlight posts that were made between when that date current date. Quite simple really!

I guess the question is why are you writing your own when there are so many choices out there that are fairly easy to mod.
