根据会话URL添加主动导航类

Question

I am trying to add an .active class (font-weight:700;) to the active pages navigation menu.

They system url is based on session and category.

Homepage (logged in) - http://mrb-admin.xpeditefulfillment.com/v5fmsnet/OeCart/OeFrame.asp?PmSess1=1339143&SXREF=0&CurPath=1

Navigation menu Cat 1 - http://mrb-admin.xpeditefulfillment.com/v5fmsnet/OeCart/OeFrame.asp?PmSess1=1339143&SXREF=1

Cat 2 - http://mrb-admin.xpeditefulfillment.com/v5fmsnet/OeCart/OeFrame.asp?PmSess1=1339143&SXREF=2

Any help pointing me in the right direction to capture the category at the end of the URL to apply the .active class would be great.

Thanks Ryan

This is what i have tried without success -

$

(function(){

//this returns the whole url

  var current = window.location.href;
   console.log(current)

  //this identifies the list you are targeting

  $('#dlCatLvl1 dd a').each(function(){
    var $this = $(this);
    console.log(this)

  // if the current path is exactly like this link, make it active

    if($this.attr('href') === current){        
       $this.css('color', 'red');
    }
     })   
});

Answer 1

Try to match not compare the values:

if(current.match($this.attr('href').replace('..', '') !== null){     
  $this.css('color', 'red');
}

Because your href values all starts with ../OeCart/OeFrame.asp[...] and your href in you browser starts every time with the whole url http://www.your.domain.de/[...] .

EDIT: There are dots on the beginning of your href-values, so replace them with blank.
