Menu problem!

[Housy]

Hey, it's me again, if static way, how do i deal with the current/active link then? I have to check if page_id or something is equal to 1 for example and set the class="active" to home button.

This menus are killing me

Tnx, Housy

I have done what you are looking for on maycroft.com. The main menu (the green bar) are static links, like so:

Code: [Select]

<ul>
<li><a class="<?php if(PAGE_ID == 3 | ROOT_PARENT == 3) {echo &#39;activemenu&#39;;}?>" href="#">Risk Management</a></li>
<li><a class="<?php if(PAGE_ID == 4) {echo &#39;activemenu&#39;;}?>" href="#">Carbon Trading</a></li>
<li><a class="<?php if(PAGE_ID == 52 | ROOT_PARENT == 52) {echo &#39;activemenu&#39;;}?>" href="#">Education</a></li>
<li><a class="<?php if(PAGE_ID == 2) {echo &#39;activemenu&#39;;}?>" href="#">Exchanges and Clearing</a></li>
</ul>(I use # instead of real url's in this code example)
You see two menu items have the extra  bit

Code: [Select]

| ROOT_PARENT == to ensure that their children pages also cause the parent menu item to show the active status.

So you have to look up the page id's for each page, and create a css style for the actively selected status. Often that is the same as the hover style. So in my css file I have:

Code: [Select]

#mainmenu li a:hover,
#mainmenu li a.activemenu {
background: url('../images/mainmenu-back2-hover.gif') left top repeat-x;
}
