I have noticed an item that needs to be added to the test for current page. The test as written only checks for category/product listing pages, but not for product info pages in the category. Change this
(($current_page_base == 'index' and $cPath == '18_56')? ' class="current"': '')
to this
((($current_page_base == 'index' or $current_page_base == 'product_info') and $cPath == '18_56')? ' class="current"': '')
to getPHP Code:$define_sidebox_ref[] = '<a href="index.php?main_page=index&cPath=18_56"' . ((($current_page_base == 'index' or $current_page_base == 'product_info') and $cPath == '18_56')? ' class="current"': '') . '>2011 Code Books & Tabs</a>';
Outstanding! That did the trick. :clap:Quote:

That's my inexperience, but in any case, it works!
Great, this worked like a charm! I didn't notice that it didn't work on the product page until your last post!Quote:

(Thank you for your patience in showing me how to do this!)
Now that the "whole box" is highlighted in the reference sidebox, it probably should also look the same in the Main Category box!
I tried using your code that you gave in an earlier post as below...
#categories a {display: block;}
#categories a+br {display: none;}
But this time it highlighted "All" of the "top-categories" to the current selected color! Probably just missing something simple again! :wacko:
#referencesidebox a.box-body {
This means "links with classname .box-body, inside elements with id #referencesidebox". #referencesidebox is the id of the (surprise!) reference sidebox you created, so the style only applies inside that.
#categories a {display: block;} is only to get the link to fill the space, not for the current styling.
You want
#categories a, #categories a span {display: block;}
#categories a+br {display: none;}
This will make the span inside the link expand to fill the space, too. Its background color will expand with it.
Ahhh... Ok, makes sense! I was defining the class box-body, without the ID #referencesidebox at first, so I can see why it is working now! Thanks for explaining!Quote:

You have this which confines the text and the span:
.box-body ul a{ color:#a19161; text-decoration:none; text-transform:uppercase; background:#413521; display:block; padding:8px 3px 6px 35px;}
Add another rule to bring the edges of the span out to match the link, and then pads the text back the same as the other links:
.box-body ul a span{margin: -8px -3px -6px -35px; padding: 8px 3px 6px 35px;}
You Are The Man Of The Year! :cheers: (cause that is about how long it would have taken me to figure this out myself! :blush:)Quote:

I'm now going to take my new found knowledge and apply it to my remaining 2 sideboxes; one being just like the Reference box, so should now be easy! :yes:
Edit: Ok, just need to add to 1 more sidebox, as the other contains "external links", so not needed there! :)
