Sure thing. Hopefully you have a central include() file... that would make this easier so you don't have to put this code in all of your pages.
if ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == "blahblah.php") { $bgcolor = "white"; //change as needed $text = "blue"; //change as needed } else { $bgcolor = "blue"; $text = "white"; } Then just echo the statements out. echo "<tr bgcolor=$bgcolor><td><font color=$text>blahblah</font></td></tr>\n"; I would advise using CSS instead of bgcolor elements, though, as it would make it so much easier (<tr class=$class><td>blahblah</td></tr>). Look up http://www.w3c.org/Style/CSS for some good tricks. Also go to http://www.htmlhelp.com and look up Cascading Style Sheets. -Dash "Just out of curiosity does this actually mean something or have some of the few remaining bits of your brain just evaporated?" -- Patricia O Tuama, [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Fri, 17 Jan 2003, Wolfgang Schneider wrote: > Hi > > a bit of a newbie question ... :-) > > Can php be used to set the bgcolor in a navigation menu depending on > what page one is on? > Let's say the menu consists of table with 4 cells / options, and the > option corresponding to the current page (somehow use $php_self to > determine?) have blue text on white background, whereas all other > options have white text on blue background ... > Can someone point me in the right direction, pelase? > Any help is much appreciated > God bless you with His grace and peace > Wolfgang > > Looking for Biblical information?
