Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
i want to mark the currently selected category by a style. just the currently selected one, neither it’s children nor it’s ancestors. something like putting a bullet before the currently displayed category. can i achieve this with stw_category? any help is greatly appreciated.
[edit]
to make it a little clearer i’ll show what i got now:
onclass=“aktiv” cat=”“
this works like i intend it for cats of the second level, but neither the first nor the third level.

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
Use the onclass="myClassName" attribute. I think you can avoid styling the ancestors and children using css selectors, ie something like:
li.myClassName {styling to display bullet}
.myClassName li {reset to normal styling}not sure how to target the parent in css. Anyone?

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
mrdale, combining your styling tips and my <code>cat=”“</code> gives a result, that’s a little better, as it marks the chosen first level categories. not too bad. but it dosn’t touch the children, i.e. they stay marked. hm.

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
i know i am not good at css, but am i doing something totally wrong? applying your rules the result stays the same (except for the circle), the ancestor stays marked even if the child is clicked. is this what you’ve intended?

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
Oops, that comment wasn’t kosher…
that second selector should have been…
#sidebar-1 li.aktiv ul li {
list-style:none; /*reset the child LIs*/
padding-left:10px;
}essentially it’s saying is that…
- anything that is an li with a class aktiv, should be a list with a disc, then
- any child li of class aktiv should have those attributes reversed.

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
allright …. pfff, hm, the difference between the first post and corrected one is the order of the comment’s escapes, right? I didn’t paste the comment. your styles give a disc only at the first level, no matter which level is clicked.
btw, did you find my “third level”-link in time and saw what happens to the first level li if you click the second or third level?

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
So to clarify, which level do you want to receive the special styling?

Re: [Archived] stw_category_tree
the respective one. what I want to achieve is a category indicator. clicking on “Der Fall Andre” in the third level shall give an indicator for this category, not for any parent category, and not for any child category.
