Thanks for the follow up. I see what you are doing I think. This is matching the filename and changing the line item based on if a match is found in the regex pattern.

I can save this for later for sure but its not quite working in my case. I tried adding this to the function to pull the query string value and match the pageURL on that.

.$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']

Didn't work. 
My match needs to happen on the query string since these are list records and not single files. If we continue with this solution, can you show me how to match the query string to the $currentFile

Sorry SubD - I'll have to leave that the the iTools team.

Well thanks. PHP guys, could you lend a hand?

THanks

Hi,

Does the details page have the num value in the URL string? If so, this is probably the easiest way to add a class of active:

<?php
  //Get the number value from the url
  $numValue = getLastNumberInUrl();

?>
<!-- list records, if record is currently being viewed, add a class of active. -->
<ul>
<?php foreach($blogs as $blog): ?>
  <li <?php if($blog['num'] == $numValue): ?>class="active"<?php endif; ?>><a href="<?php echo $blog['_link']; ?>" ><?php echo $blog['title']; ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>


So the getLastNumberInUrl function will get set the last number in the URL to the variable numValue. Then in the foreach loop, if the num value equals the records value, a class of active is added.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Greg

ah ha!

Thanks again.

This is within my foreach record code inside the image that needs to have the class changed when on the current record:

<?php if($record['num'] == $numValue): ?>class="active" <?php else:?> class="inactive"<?php endif; ?>

Simple an I can totally see where to use this in other applications for list detail pages.
