Question

<div class="menu clearfix">
<ul>
    <li><a href="./">start</a></li>
    <li><a href="./?p=rating">rating</a></li>
    <li><a href="./?p=upload">upload</a></li>
</ul>

Was a while since i used php. Is there any smart way to do a foreach in php and render this menu + an “active” class to the clicked link. So if the active page is “rating”, the html would render:

    <div class="menu clearfix">
<ul>
    <li><a href="./">start</a></li>
    <li><a href="./?p=rating" class="active">rating</a></li>
    <li><a href="./?p=upload">upload</a></li>
</ul>

Thanks

Assuming the $_GET value of p would be rating (or any other link in the menu for that matter), one could do something like this:

<?php

        echo "<div class=\"menu clearfix\">";
        echo "<ul>";
        $links = array('rating', 'upload', 'about');
        foreach ($links as $link) {
            $active = "";
            if (!empty($_GET['p']) && $link == $_GET['p']){
                $active = 'class="active"';
            }
            echo "<li><a href=\"./?p=$link\" $active>$link</a></li>";
        }
        echo "</ul></div>"

?>
