I'm new to SS and working on converting an existing site for use with the CMS. The site design involves a graphical menu bar across the top which uses separate images for each menu item. For simplicity's sake I'm inclined to leave it this way (at least for now) and just change the links to point to the relevant SS top-level pages. However, I need to be able to figure out which menu item is the current page and display a different image in the menu bar. Currently this is done by simply having a different HTML file for each page and hard-coding the images, but obviously I don't want to do that.

The <% if LinkCurrent = current %> doesn't seem to work without the SS menu control structure, so is there some other way to do this?

if I have to do a site with graphical navigation what I normally do is in the menu control (nice bits cut out for briefness)

<% control Menu(1) %>
<img src="{$URLSegment}nav.gif" alt="$Title" />
<% end_control %>

So if you have a Blog page with a URL of blog your blog image should be blognav.gif and blognavCurrent. Then what you could do if you want to swap the images on the current page is

<% control Menu(1) %>
<% if LinkOrSection = section %>
<img src="{$URLSegment}navCurrent.gif" alt="$Title" />
<% else %>
<img src="{$URLSegment}nav.gif" alt="$Title" />
<% end_control %>

Thats just one of the ways you could do it.

Ignore this question ... must be a newbie error. All working fin now.
