Main Navigation selected while surfing subpages

Permalink
Hello,

is it possible to have the main menu item selected while browsing subpages of that item?
Or do I have to program a database request for this?

I did this:
<?php 
   defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
   $aBlocks = $controller->generateNav();
   global $c;
   echo("<ul>");
   $isFirst = true;
   foreach($aBlocks as $ni) {
      $_c = $ni->getCollectionObject();
      if (!$_c->getCollectionAttributeValue('exclude_nav')) {
         if (strpos($c->getCollectionPath(), $_c->getCollectionPath()) === 0) {
            $navSelected='nav-selected';
            $dilim='<strong>&raquo;</strong>'; // optional text before active parent
         } else {
            $navSelected = '';
            $dilim='';

Already got this to work, but thank you for your help. I did use the same sort of code, but exchanged strpos with strcmp in order to avoid nav-selected when the site have similar names.

Sorry to bring back an old thread, but i'm having trouble with the above using concrete 5.3.3.1.

The code shown above does the job of selecting the parent page as well, but it stops the 'replace_link_with_first_in_nav' function working, which in my case is needed.

Does anyone have any suggestions to make both work together?

Thanks for any help guys!
