Hi all,

I'm creating a skin to match a site of which my DNN installation is a sub-site. I'm #including a menu file in the skin that uses ASP variables to indicate the current page (by matching the a:hover CSS for the link). The code looks like this:

<

li <% if level1="about" then response.write("class='current'") %>><a href="/about/about.asp">About FCDS</a></li>

On a non-DNN page I hard-code the variable. In DNN I've tried adding it to the Page Header Tags, using both <% level1="about"%> and a <script runat="server"> tag with no success. Any other suggestions?

Thanks!
Jerry

OK - here's a solution:

Give the menu listitem an id: <li id="about"><a href="/about/about.asp">About FCDS</a></li>

Put a function in the Page Header Tags changing the class of the specific menu item to "current":
<script language="javascript" >
function setCurrentMenuItem() {
obj=document.getElementById("about");
obj.className="current";
}
 

Call the function from the ascx file, after the menu has been included:
script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
setCurrentMenuItem();
</script>

Enjoy!
