Pagination script question...selected page?

[Kihon]

Question RE: Pagination here: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/csslibrary/item/css_pagination_links/

I have implemented this here: http://www.makeuptalk.com/reviews/brands/1/Makeup.html

My question is this. How can I get the "SELECTED" corresponding letter to stay selected? For example, if I am on this page: http://www.makeuptalk.com/reviews/brands/1/D/Makeup.html, how can I get the letter "D" to remain highlighted or selected?

Here is my php code used:



print "<div align='center'><font class='bigreviewtoptext2'><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/$seo_title_cat.html'>$cate_name</a>"; if($w_reviewid[5]) print " - Brands that begin with $brand_initial"; else print " - Browse by Brands"; print "</font></div><br />";
print "<div class='pagination'>
<ul>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/A/$seo_title_cat.html'>A</a></li>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/B/$seo_title_cat.html'>B</a></li>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/C/$seo_title_cat.html'>C</a></li>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/D/$seo_title_cat.html'>D</a></li>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/E/$seo_title_cat.html'>E</a></li>

<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/Y/$seo_title_cat.html'>Y</a></li>
<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/Z/$seo_title_cat.html'>Z</a></li>
</ul>
</div>";

Thank you for your time.

On each page you'd have to apply the current class. For example if you were on page 'W,' then in the code for page W you would wanna add the highlighted:


<li><a href='/reviews/brands/$cate_id/W/$seo_title_cat.html' class="currentpage">W</a></li>


Hope this helps,

Oh I knew this. My pages are dynamically generated. What I don't know is how to code that up for dynamically generated pages. It's php.

Are you using modRewrite? It looks like you are... If you are, can you post what the real address for:


/reviews/brands/$cate_id/A/$seo_title_cat.html

Would look like please. :)
