更改css中的活动导航栏颜色

Question

I am using a simple top css navbar(just a css and html, without bootstrap/other framework) and i would like to change the active page. So when i go to the home page, the button color in navbar changes into red/whatever, likewise when i go to the other page...

here the code:

 body { margin: 0; } .logo { margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; background-color: #f2f2f2; float: left; width: 25%; } ul { list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; background-color: #333; } li { float: left; } li a { display: block; color: white; text-align: center; padding: 14px 40px; text-decoration: none; font-size: 18px; } li a:hover { background-color: #111; } 

 <ul> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">News</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Division</a></li> <li><a href="#">Career</a></li> <li><a href="#">MChoice's</a></li> </ul> 

do you have an idea? it's ok to add javascript

Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

What I did here is when $(document).ready(function() {..} get the path using var url = window.location.pathname; so you know which link the user coming from therefore you know which menu item they clicked.

Then $('ul li a').each(function() {...} will check each menu item, try to match the url path with the menu's href attributes, if a match found, make that menu item active (with css active class added), if not match remove the active class if any. That should do the trick.

(note: assume your app is not single page app)

for Single page app it is much easier, deactive all menu item then active the one you clicked.

 $(document).ready(function() { //var url = window.location.pathname; var url = 'http://stacksnippets.net/js#division'; console.log('url-->', url); $('ul li a').each(function() { var href = $(this).attr('href'); if (!!url.match(href)) { $(this).addClass('active'); } else { $(this).removeClass('active'); } }); }); 

 body { margin: 0; } .logo { margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; background-color: #f2f2f2; float: left; width: 25%; } ul { list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; background-color: #333; } li { float: left; } li a { display: block; color: white; text-align: center; padding: 14px 40px; text-decoration: none; font-size: 18px; } li a:hover { background-color: #111; } .active { background-color: red; } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <ul> <li><a href="#home">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#news">News</a></li> <li><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li> <li><a href="#about">About</a></li> <li><a href="#division">Division</a></li> <li><a href="#career">Career</a></li> <li><a href="#mchoices">MChoice's</a></li> </ul> 

Answer 2

try below code for active menu

    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
   $('li a').on('click', function(){
      $('li a').removeClass('active');
      $(this).addClass('active');
    }); 
});
</script>

<style type="text/css">
body {
  margin: 0;
}

.logo {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
  background-color: #f2f2f2;
  float: left;
  width: 25%;
}

ul {
  list-style-type: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
  background-color: #333;
}

li {
  float: left;
}

li a {
  display: block;
  color: white;
  text-align: center;
  padding: 14px 40px;
  text-decoration: none;
  font-size: 18px;
}

li a:hover, li a.active {
  background-color: #111;
}

</style>
<ul>
  <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">News</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Division</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Career</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">MChoice's</a></li>
</ul>

Answer 3

The simplest solution would be to add an active class to the link of the page you're on:

<ul>
  <li><a href="#" class="active">Home</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">News</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Division</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Career</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">MChoice's</a></li>
</ul>

Then style those that class accordingly:

li a.active {
    background: #F00;
}

If you're using a CMS (Wordpress, etc), adding some sort of active class on the active link is usually done for you. If you're doing your own static HTML, you would have to do it manually.

Answer 4

To change the color of active link in your navigation you need to do the following things:

1. On click of navigation link add css class:

$('ul li a').click(function(){
    $('li a').removeClass("active");
    $(this).addClass("active");
});

2. Add CSS for active class

ul li a.active {
    background-color: #f4f4f4;
}

Answer 7

One possible way is to use the active selector in CSS. This selector highlights the active element you are using when its clicked.

a:active { 
    background-color: yellow;
}

a:focus { 
    background-color: yellow;
}

You can use some JQuery to turn it on and off too. Try looking at this post here, I think you may have get your answer.

(Related to How to keep :active css style after clicking an element )

jQuery('button').click(function(){
   jQuery(this).toggleClass('active');
});

Answer 8

Here's a JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/timhjellum/nw3n7eka/103/

This is a jQuery option which looks at the page URL (window.location) and specifically for a string which you define in the .indexOf(" add a unique string here ") and asks if that string is greater than -1, then locate the li element with the class you assigned to it, and add another class called active.

In the example I'm using "display" because that the URL for that iFrame that JSFiddle uses so hopefully that's not confusing.

Here's the navigation:

$(document).ready(function () {
     if(window.location.href.indexOf("home") > -1) {
         $(".home").addClass("active");
     }
     if(window.location.href.indexOf("display") > -1) {
         $(".news").addClass("active");
     }
     //make one for each nav element
});

The HTML needs to be modified like:

<ul>
  <li class="home"><a href="index">Home</a></li>
  <li class="news"><a href="display">News</a></li>
  <li class="contact"><a href="contact">Contact</a></li>
  <li class="about"><a href="about">About</a></li>
</ul>

And then a simple css addition:

li.active {
  background-color: white;
}
li.active a {
  color: black;
}

If you can't use jQuery, let me know but this is the easiest solution for you to implement and allow you to easily modify

Answer 9

You could try having separate classes in your CSS file, like "ul-home," "ul-news," etc. and define different background colors for each, then simply set the class for your <ul> tag on each page to match the class you want. So:

.ul-home {
    background-color: red;
}
.ul-news {
    backrgound-color: yellow;
}

And then on your home page:

<ul class="ul-home>
    <li>Home</li>
    <li>News</li>
</ul>

On your news page:

<ul class="ul-news">
    <li>Home</li>
    <li>News</li>
</ul>

Etc. with all the other pages you have.
