Thanks for the clarification, David, and for your snippet, Derek. I think adding an "always" attribute to Menu.item would be very beneficial. I still don't understand why that's not its default behavior.
It looks like I will not be able to use any of lift's Menu tags at this time, because 1) I need to surround the item text with span and 2) I need a way to add class="active" to the li_item. Both are not possible with Menu.item, Menu.group, or Menu.builder. Let me know if I am mistaken. If I am not not, may I put in a feature request for these items. For the time being I will just hard code it as follows (which is not a big deal to me at this time): <ul class="menu"> <li><a href="/foo1" class="active"><span>Foo1</span></foo> <li><a href="/foo2"><span>Foo2</span></foo> <li><a href="/foo3"><span>Foo3</span></foo> </ul> Thanks again for the great support :) Bradford On Mar 24, 12:08 pm, David Pollak <feeder.of.the.be...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Tue, Mar 24, 2009 at 9:02 AM, Charles F.
