Ruby Forum Radiant CMS > selecting current page in menu

I have this as my menu.

I need to identify which is the current page so I can set the
class="here"

How can I do that ?

<ul class="floatRight">
      <li><a href="/" title="Home" class="here"> Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="/shop/" title="Shop" >Shop</a></li>
      <li><a href="/projects/" title="Projects">Projects</a></li>
      <li><a href="/gallery/" title="Gallery">Gallery</a></li>
      <li><a href="/aboutme/" title="About Me" >About Me</a></li>
      <li><a href="/contactus/" title="Contact Us" class="last">Contact
Us</a></li>
    </ul>

The typical way is to use <r:navigation>.  This snippet should do what
you like:

<ul class="floatRight">
<r:navigation urls="Home: /| Shop: /shop/ | Projects: /projects/ |
Gallery: /gallery/ | About Me: /aboutme/ | Contact Us: /contactus/">
  <r:normal><li><a href="<r:url />" title="<r:title />"><r:title
/></a></li></r:normal>
  <r:here><li><a href="<r:url />" title="<r:title />"
class="here"><r:title /></a></li></r:here>
</r:navigation>
</ul>

Unfortunately, it won't let you add the "last" class, but you could add
that with JavaScript pretty easily.  If you're using Prototype:

document.observe("dom:loaded", function(){
$$('li:last-child').invoke('addClassName', 'last'); });

Your other option is to use a bunch of <r:if_url> tags, one on each
link, to see whether you should add the "here" class.

Sean,

Thanks...

I just pasted your code into my header and poof... it worked.

I am starting to get it !!!!

I am a 40 year programmer, but realize the power of things like Radiant 
CMS.

I have a lot to learn,  but I am SOLD on Radiant...

Good community ....

I will let y'all know when I get my 1st site up.  It's my woodworking 
hobby site, but it will teach me a whole lot and then maybe I can sell a 
site !!!

That's great!

Cheers,
Sean
