[TYPO3-english] Active Link in Menu When Viewing Home Page

[ChandaCole]

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the quick reply, at least I know I am on the right track!  I have
tried adding the alwaysActivePid entry but it does not seem to make a change
(even after clearing all caches).  I've posted the relevant code below if
you don't mind taking a quick peek - as I said I'm very new at this and just
might be missing something in the syntax.  I haven't added the entry to
remove it for the next level, just wanted to see part work first.

globalMenu >
globalMenu = HMENU
globalMenu.entryLevel = 0
globalMenu.wrap = <div id="globalMenu-outer"><div id="globalMenu">| <div
class="clear"></div></div></div><!-- end #globalMenu  -->
globalMenu.1 = TMENU
globalMenu.1 {
	expAll=1
	alwaysActivePid = 156
	wrap = <ul class="adxm menu"> | </ul>
	noBlur = 1
	NO {
    	ATagParams = class="top_parent"
		wrapItemAndSub = <li> | </li>
	}
	ACT = 1
	ACT {
		ATagParams = class="top_parent"
		wrapItemAndSub = <li class="active"> | </li>
		}
	ACTIFSUB = 1
	ACTIFSUB {
		ATagParams = class="top_parent"
		wrapItemAndSub = <li class="active_dir"> | </li>
		}
		
	IFSUB = 1
	IFSUB {
		ATagParams = class="top_parent"
		wrapItemAndSub = <li class="dir"> | </li>
		}

}

globalMenu.2 = TMENU
globalMenu.2 {
	expAll=1
	wrap = <ul> | </ul>
	noBlur = 1
	NO {
		ATagParams = class="parent"
		wrapItemAndSub = <li> | </li>
	}
}
