I've been trying out solutions to similar cases but none of them work so far.
Here's the problem, I have 2 html files total. On my navigation bar, I have 4 options. 3 of them refer to id's on the same page(index) and the 4th refers to the separate page. Now coming from the separate page back to the index, the active menu item isn't the right "active" one. Like if I click on 'about' on the support page, the active menu item is 'home'. or if I click on 'contact', the active menu item becomes 'about'. The content that appears is correct. But the active menu item isn't.
Here's from the index.html file:
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li class="current">Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li class="support" >Support</li>
<li >Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
and here's from support.html:
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li class="current">Support</li>
<li >Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
This is one of the solutions that I tried with no results:

JS is not my strong suit, thank you so much for your help!
There were lot of issues with the way you are loading scripts for example
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#ind').cycle({
fx: 'fade' // choose your transition type, ex: fade, scrollUp, shuffle, etc...
});
});
you are calling this before the jquery is loaded so it gives $ is undefined error, so the solution is to move all the script at the end, and there is one inline script also for menu handler, move that to document ready functions
I have included the fix in the following file HTML Zip files, you will find all JS moved to end. Its working fine for me now
One more thing make your contact height same as other container or remove extra margin/padding from Physicians section

I have made a navigational bar in Bootstrap.
It is in a file called header.html.
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="myNavbar">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav pull-right">
<li class="item active">Home</li>
<li>Courses</li>
<li>Projects</li>
<li>Publications</li>
<li>Patents</li>
</ul>
I use an include virtual on all 5 pages on the navbar to display my menu bar.
<!--#include virtual="/templates/header.html" -->
I am trying to figure out a way to apply the "item active" class to the page that the browser is viewing, all while using an included header file.
The only solution I thought of would be creating a CSS sheet per page, and only loading that specific CSS sheet depending on the page loaded.
That specific CSS sheet would style that specific li item.
I am open to using JavaScript if needed.
I am currently helping to solve a toggle problem but there's no error showing in console and I don't know where to start looking.
There are two tabs which can be toggled between each other. Let's say toggle tabs are pay / method. Default page is showing pay and when method tab is clicked, method tab shows perfectly but when clicking pay again the tab (CSS) worked fine that we can see pay tab is active but contents of pay doesn't show. The contents are still method.
Currently using bootstrap and of course the script included jquery already.
The html code is
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li class="active" role="presentation">
<a data-toggle="tab" role="tab" aria-controls="home" href="#home" aria-expanded="true">Pay</a>
<li class="" role="presentation">
<a data-toggle="tab" role="tab" aria-controls="method" href="#method" aria-expanded="false">method</a>
</ul>
I am not sure what else to show since the scripts is form bootstrap, it'll be HUGE.
P.S. as said, even though the contents don't show but by clicking each other, I can still see the class is set to active and aria-expanded is set to true to whichever tab I clicked. (Also, I am wondering if I couldn't find out what is really causing this since there are no errors and so on, am I able to write a new script and include the script below the bootstrap script? That should override and work right?)
Edit:
I have tried adding jquery and so I can select the current element but somehow it only worked a bit.
I added another class into the html
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active payment-tabs">pay</li>
<li role="presentation" class="payment-tabs">method</li>
</ul>
I have script like this
$("ul.nav.nav-tabs").on('click', $(".payment-tabs.active"), function () {
console.log($(".payment-tabs.active"));
});
I tried console.log lots ways to find the current element or at least the a element but when I console.log I realized when I click method, the console.log does give the element of method but when I click pay the first time what I got from console.log is still the method element even though pay already has active class added. If I click the pay again then I will finally get the pay element. I might have an idea of the reason but I just have no idea how I can solve this.
Can someone please give me a hand please?
Thanks in advance.
Make sure you include the scripts needed to run the code. See the running demo here
Basically, you just need to call 3 main sources.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
The Tab
<div class="container">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="myTab">
<li class="active"><a data-target="#payment" data-toggle="tab">Payment</a></li>
<li><a data-target="#method" data-toggle="tab">Method</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="payment">This is a payment area</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="method">This is a method.</div>
</div>
</div>
So I have a simple menu and I'm trying to remove/add an active class to the clicked menu item.
$(function(){
$('ul.navbar-nav li').click(function(){
$('ul.navbar-nav li').removeClass('active');
$(this).addClass('active');
});
});
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">Home</li>
<li>work</li>
<li>methods</li>
<li>blog</li>
<li>team</li>
<li>contact</li>
</ul>
The issue I'm having is this works but since going to a new page refreshes the site once I'm in the new page the active class always goes back to the initial active class in my HTML. I feel like I've done this a number of times and never had this issue. Maybe I'm missing something.
As you redirecting new page on each link click, so dynamically added active class is removed on page load. You can do it like following.
Remove the active class from home menu and add specific href to this like below.
<li class="active">Home</li>
jQuery
$(function () {
$('ul.navbar-nav > li > a').each(function () {
if (window.location.pathname.indexOf($(this).attr('href')) > -1) {
$(this).closest('li').addClass('active');
return false;
}
});
});
There is more than just one file in your project, right?
I would copy the whole ul navbar and paste it into every single page. All you have to do after that, is to put the active class on the respective li element.
Update: None of your li's should have an active class and then add the active class on page load.
/menu.html
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="home">Home</li>
<li class="work">work</li>
<li class="methods">methods</li>
<li class="blog">blog</li>
<li class="team">team</li>
<li class="contact">contact</li>
</ul>
js could be something like this
var page = window.location.pathname.split('/')[1];
$('li.' + page).addClass('active');
You can try following things
$(function()
{
$('ul.navbar-nav li').click(function(event)
{
$('ul.navbar-nav li').removeClass('active');
$(this).addClass('active');
event.preventDefault();
});
});
Prevent default would avoid anchor tag tag default action to reload the page. So this should work.
Or if you do not need to go to another page then you can use div instead anchor tag.You can simulate anchor tag behaviour using :hover css selector.
div:hover
{
color:blue;
cursor:pointer;
font-style:underline;
}
This seems to be working:
HTML:
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li id="liHome">home</li>
<li id="liWork">work</li>
<li id="liMethods">methods</li>
<li id="liBlog">blog</li>
<li id="liTeam">team</li>
<li id="liContact">contact</li>
</ul>
The event handler:
$('ul.navbar-nav li').click(function(){
window.sessionStorage.activeMenuItem = this.id;
});
When the page has loaded:
if (window.sessionStorage.activeMenuItem) {
$("#"+sessionStorage.activeMenuItem).addClass('active');
}
From https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/Window/sessionStorage:
A page session lasts for as long as the browser is open and survives over page reloads and restores.
One problem with this solution is that you cannot open links in a new window, since:
Opening a page in a new tab or window will cause a new session to be initiated, which differs from how session cookies work.
You're likely in one of three scenarios:
A) You have a collection of static HTML pages with unique content.
B) You're using a server-side language and doing some basic includes
C) You're using a framework with routing logic.
A If you have two pages both containing the menu code, then it's as simple as moving the default active class.
<!-- Home -->
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">Home</li>
<li>work</li>
…
</ul>
<!-- Work -->
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li>Home</li>
<li class="active">work</li>
…
</ul>
B Assuming you're using PHP then something like the following is an easy way to pass this info around:
// menu.php
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li <?php if($page = 'home'){ echo 'class="active"' } ?>>Home</li>
…
</ul>
// home.php
<?php
$page = 'home';
include(menu.php);
…
C This will largely depend on the framework you're using, but most will have template helpers that can access the current route, something like:
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li <% is_route('home') class="active" %>>Home</li>
But adding classes after DOM load with javascript or using session or cookie states is likely over the top.
I have a JSP page which uses bootstraps data-toggle="tab" functionality. Upon page load I make one tab active.
<ul class="nav st-nav-tabs">
<li class="active">First Tab</li>
<li>Second Tab</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1"></div>
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab2"></div>
</div>
I have a Highcharts chart on the page, whenever a user clicks on one of the columns I call a JS function which makes tab2 the active tab on the page. Inside this function I've tried a few different commands but none seem to work. I'm quite new to jQuery so I'm hoping someone might be able to point out where I'm going wrong with my syntax.
function handleClick(){
//I've tried the following, none seem to work
$('#tab2').toggleClass('active');
$('#tab2').show();
$('#tab2').tab('show');
}
First you need to give your tabs an id, i will call it myTabs:
<ul class="nav st-nav-tabs" id="myTabs">
Then you can call and show your tabs by name to show them:
$('#myTabs a[href="#name"]').tab('show');
You can read about tabs in bootstrap's documentation.
I've done a search both on here and via Google, I've tried all the codes that they have given me, and no success on any of them. I've got no idea at all why they don't work.
Basically when you scroll the page and reach the anchor link "about" I want "about" to be highlighted until you get to "events", etc.
<div id="menu-wrapper">
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li class="logo"><img src="/images/ccky_logo.png" height="60"/></li>
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Events</li>
<li>Team</li>
<li>Location</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
<!-- end #menu -->
</div>
Thanks!
You can use bootstrap's Scrollspy to achieve this effect: http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/javascript.html#scrollspy
After you implemented the JavaScript plugin simply call it with $('#menu').scrollspy().
In your HTML, just add the data parameters bootstrap instructs you to use.
