Question

I have an ASP.NET MVC Page that has Left Menu navigation that is built using JQuery Treeview as in Demo #3 in http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/treeview/index.htm

Here I made Childnode as href link so that rightside main partial view is loaded.

Now for the chicldnode that is clicked, I want to highlight the background-color.

Wondering how to do this?

Appreciate your time.

Thanks

jQuery

$(".treeview a").click(function(){ 
    $(this).css("backgroundColor", "blue");
});

CSS

What would be better so that you don’t have multiple ‘blue’ background’ed anchor tags is just extend their ‘selected’ class:

.treeview a.selected { background: blue; }
