Hi, all!
We've all attempted several different ways of highlighting navigation
links which point to the current page. Often times we mark the page
via our PHP by adding a class (e.g. "currentPage") to the navigation
link which points to the current page, or some such. Here
The easiest way to learn RegExs, IMO, is with a realtime RegEx
checker, such as:

I've seen a better one with highlighting but I can't find it in my
bookmarks at the moment.

I've given it some more thought, but I can't come up with a more
elegant solution (except perhaps for filter(), but I doubt that it
improves anything performance-wise). That's because we have to check
if the current link is in the current location, not the other w

Doh, of course i hadn't considered that the navigation links

Hi Stephan,
I did a quick test case with the following links:

The Stephan/Karl solution will only highlight link B regardless of
which link I click, whereas my solution highlights A-C when on the
index.html page regardless of the GET vars attached, an

Hi Stephan, Karl,
how about plain and stupid checking if the current url is in the link?
$('a').each(function(){
if( window.location.href.indexOf( $(this).attr('href') ) >= 0 &&
$(this).attr('href').length > 1 ) {

The main problem with that is you've normally got to add several

This approach might also have an odd side effect due to the stripping
