What I'm doing is to get the actual route in template, and if a route matchs a category (lets say), then print an "id='current'"
for example: <li><a {% if app.request.attributes.get('_route') == 'homepage' %} class='current' {% endif %} href="{{ path('homepage') }}">Home</a></li> That's it. Of course it will become clumsy when you have many links cause it is hard to read through. I'll go with MenuBundle in my next project update schedule. 2011/5/28 FuzzyBird <nicolas.worm...@gmail.com> > I think a good way to do it is, in the controller : > > // first generate the menu structure > > // you may want to do the following in a loop for all your menu items > if ($this->get('router')->generate('some-route') === $this- > >get('request')->getRequestUri() ){ > // highlight the link of this route > } > > Hope it helped > > On May 12, 8:20 pm, Filipe La Ruina <filaru...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hey guys, > > I've been searching for a way of getting the controller that was called > so I > > can highlight the menu. > > I looked in the HTTP Foundation class and it seems that there is no way > of > > doing it. > > Even searching here I couldn't find anyone that had the same problem. > > Well, now i'm doing it the following way (note that I need it to show > some > > element in the html and a class in an element) > > > > <ul class="menu"> > > <li {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/foo') > > %}class="selected"{% endif %}> > > {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/foo') %} > > <span class="border left"></span> > > {% endif %} > > <a href="{{ url('foo') }}">Foo</a> > > {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/foo') %} > > <span class="border right"></span> > > {% endif %} > > </li> > > <li {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/bar') > > %}class="selected"{% endif %}> > > {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/bar') %} > > <span class="border left"></span> > > {% endif %} > > <a href="{{ url('bar') }}">Bar</a> > > {% if (app.request.getPathInfo == '/bar') %} > > <span class="border right"></span> > > {% endif %} > > </li> > > </ul> > > > > For now it is working since I don't have /foo/abc for example, all the > urls > > are /foo and /bar so the test will work. > > Also I think that is not a nice way of testing (actually using the url > and > > not the controller name) > > So is there anyway of getting the controller name on the template? > > -- > If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to > security at symfony-project.com > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "symfony users" group. > To post to this group, send email to symfony-users@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > symfony-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/symfony-users?hl=en > -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony users" group.
