Switch Menu - Highlight Current Menu Item?

[magruth]

I am using the Switch Menu
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...switchmenu.htm

I really like it, but would like to be able to have the current selected menu item stay highlighted so the user knows where they are.

If anyone knows how to modify the code to support this, I would really appreciate sharing this with me!

Thanks

Yes I have ask his many times now... especially for the submenu items, the lack of replies signals that either it can't be done or its a tad difficult for the developers... lets hope they respond soon because it would really be the icing on the cake to a very nice menu sript..

Yeah, no kidding. Now there are at least 3 of us who want to be able to do this. It can't be that difficult for people who write these scripts, can it?

It's all CSS based.
Add a new id or class selector, call it current.

So it's like this:

.menutitle{
cursor:pointer;
margin-bottom: 5px;
background-color:#ECECFF;
color:#000000;
width:140px;
padding:2px;
text-align:center;
font-weight:bold;
}

.submenu{
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
}

#current{
cursor:pointer;
margin-bottom: 5px;
background-color:#FF0000;
color:#FFFFFF;
width:140px;
padding:2px;
text-align:center;
font-weight:bold;
}

So you add it like this in RED.

<div class="menutitle" onclick="SwitchMenu('sub1')" id="current">Site Menu</div>

Have you guys had any experience with HTML, CSS?

Anyways if you want it dynamic, do this:
Dynamic_Menu_Highlighting

This is better:
current_menu_state_with_css/
