Question

Is it possible to add “active” or “inactive” on a menu that uses scrollTo to indicate if the visitor have selected that menu option or not.

Like:

<ul>
 <li><a href="#target1" class="inactive">Target 1</a></li>
 <li><a href="#target2" class="active">Target 2</a></li> <-- selected.
 <li><a href="target3" class="inactive">Target 3</a></li>
...
</ul>

Answer 1

you can do it like this i have given your ul an id menu

    $('#menu li a').hover(
  function () {

$(this).addClass('active').removeClass('inactive');
  }, 
  function () {

    $(this).addClass('inactive').removeClass('active');
  }
);

​if you want to do it on click use this

    $('#menu li a').click(
  function () {

$(this).addClass('active').removeClass('inactive');
      $('#menu li a').not(this).addClass('inactive').removeClass('active');
  }
);
