Symphony.

so, i have 2 sections: Cases and Categories… each case is inside a category…

i have 2 pages too….

/cases - this page display all the cases, and /category/something that display all the cases that are inside “something..”

and 3 navigation buttons: Home, Cases, Contact -Categories is hidden…

i already listed all the categories on the cases page so “something1, something2 and something3” should be subnav of Cases.

now, the navigation knows that if $curent-page is “cases” then Cases button will be selected….

the problem is that i can’t make Cases button selected when i go to a category page ex: /category/something1

in this example $curent-page is “category” and not “cases”

my first idea was to give “cases” value to $curent-page only when you access /category/something… but i don’t know how to do that and it doesn’t look like a smart way to solve this problem…

anyone can help me with this? thanks!

Why don’t you ditch the Category page altogether and pass a case handle as a URL Parameter to the Cases page?

/cases/case-name-here/

The alternative direction is: how are you selecting the navigation in the first place? If you’re checking the $current-page parameter inside an xsl:if could you check for both:

test="$current-page='cases' or $current-pages='categories'"

your way is not working for m, when i go to a category page all the navigation buttons are selected because of: if $current-pages=’categories’” loop…

but, I solve this problem starting from what you said, i think i can delete the catgories data source now….

thanks nick!

navigation.xsl

<xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="$current-page = @handle">
        <xsl:attribute name="class">active</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="@handle = 'cases' and $current-page= 'caseslist'">
        <xsl:attribute name="class">active</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise></xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

this is how i solved this problem…

so, i have one data source that list 20 “cases”

my menu looks like this:

Home

Cases

• Grid View
• List View

Contact

Grid View is actually the Cases page, List View is a hidden page named Caseslist

when you go on /cases page the Cases button is active….

when you go on /caseslist page the Cases button is active….

sorry for my bad english :P

<xsl:when test="$current-page = @handle or @handle = 'cases' and $current-page= 'caseslist'">
        <xsl:attribute name="class">active</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:when>

simplified :P
