Hello: I apologize if this has been asked and answered elsewhere. I searched and did not see an answer to this. I am using RSD v. 2.5 and want the nav link of the current page to be a different color so that it will be obvious to visitors as to which page they are on. There is not a "current" option on the dropdown under the "State" menu, so it looks like this will need to be done by hand. Can someone please point me in the right direction as to how to do this? And where is the code for this stored? It looks like there are several CSS or stylesheet files and I can't figure out which one is the right file for this type of solution.

Thank you in advance for your help. Please let me know if you need any further info.

I'm a relative newb, so your help is greatly appreciated.

Hello Walter there are a couple of solutions one is to use some js script code the other is to apply a class name to the link you want to change the colour for.

It depends on how many pages you have. If there are many then the js script would be best as it automates the colour change.

If you don't have many pages then applying to class name to the nev link manual is ok.

I am not near my pc at the moment so cannot put up the js script for a while but I will be able to do so soon when I get back homìe

So in the meanwhile
On the page you want change the colour. Select the navigation link apply an additional class name xuch as act chanel the colour or any other style you want

Move to your next page and on the navigation link for that page apply the new class name you see previously

Continue until all pages done.

Or wait a while so I can send the js code or maybe someone else may have it for you before I get back home
