Highlighting parent of selected menu item

[andieje]

Hi

Lets say i have a simple menu with only one level of items, I am highlighting the menu item corresponding to the page the user is viewing like so

Dim menuItem As RadMenuItem = MainMenu.FindItemByUrl(Request.Url.PathAndQuery)

If Not (menuItem Is Nothing) Then

menuItem.CssClass =

"rmFocused"

 

End If 

My menu has now changed to have child items

e.g
Parent1
  Child1
  Child2
Parent 2
Parent 3
Parent 4
  Child 3
  Child 4

If the user selects the menu item called Child 1, i want its parent menu item Parent1 to be highlighted when the page loads to show the user is in that 'section' of the menu. I dont know how to do this

thanks
andrea

Hi andieje,

I apologize for the delayed reply.

You can try this code:

Dim menuItem As RadMenuItem = MainMenu.FindItemByUrl(Request.Url.PathAndQuery)

If Not (menuItem Is Nothing) Then
menuItem.CssClass = "rmFocused"
(DirectCast(menuItem.Owner, RadTreeNode)).CssClass = "rmFocused"
End If

I hope this helps.
