Hi Christian, Did you ever get an answer to your question? I too have been looking for this and there are a couple of options that I'm wanting to try out but haven't yet. a) Using the backdoor extension (http://backdoor.rubyforge.org/) in combination with some regex matching on the current url. Not ideal if you're worried about executing Ruby inside your templates. or b) There's also the if_ancestor_or_self tag in the navigation extension that might do it. Seems you could use that tag to set a CSS class for the active link/menu. http://svn.artofmission.com/svn/plugins/radiant/extensions/navigation_tags/lib/navigation_tags.rb Victor -- Victor Cosby Independent Software Consultant and Web Developer LFL Communications _______________________________________________ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@lists.radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant
