How to mark a link in a layout menu as "active" in rails?
- by Erik Escobedo
I have a ul filled with links in my layout/application.html.erb and want the current location link be marked with class="active".
Now I'm using:
<%= link_to 'About Us', { :controller => 'aboutus' }, :class => "menu#{' active' if params[:controller] == 'aboutus'}" %>
But it looks pretty nasty to me.
Anyone has a better idea?
