Question

So what I need to do, is when I list wp_list_categories I need to check an ID with each category ID listed on wp_list_categories and if that statement is true add a class.Something like this:

if($foo = $category_id) echo '<li class="active">Category name</li>'; Is this possible?

//Short brief

I need something like this because I list the categories in the sidebar and also I display the first post from that category, so I need to mark that category as active when I do this and I do all of this in a page template.
