Hello Forum, salute Cedrick,
i`m a novice in css.
I use
Joomla 3.4.8
virtuemart 3.0.12
accordeon Menu CK
As Template i use vivid from virtuemarttemplate.net

I would like to show a backgroundcolor for an active link in the menu, but with no effort.

This is the css i use with accordeon Menu CK.
Code:
<?php header('content-type: text/css'); $id = 'ul#'.htmlspecialchars ( $_GET['cssid'] , ENT_QUOTES ); ?> /*-------------------------------------------- -- Simple theme Menu Accordeon CK -- -- This is a simple theme with annotations -- -- you can fill it like you want -- -- to put your own CSS -- --------------------------------------------*/ /* main UL container */ <?php echo $id; ?> { padding: 5px; margin: 0; } /* style for all links */ <?php echo $id; ?> li { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; margin: 0; text-align: left; list-style: none; color: #000; background: none; } /* style for all links from the second level - list-style-type : square; hab ich auskommentiert */ <?php echo $id; ?> li ul li { /* list-style-type : square; */ margin: 0 0 0 0px; border-bottom: none; border-top: 1px solid #ddd; } /* style for all anchors */ <?php echo $id; ?> li a { margin: 0; color: #000; text-align: left; display: block; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 4px; padding-top: 10px; text-decoration: none; background: none; } /* style for all anchors on mouseover */ <?php echo $id; ?> li a:hover, <?php echo $id; ?> ul li a:focus { color: #56acd1; } /* style for all link descriptions */ <?php echo $id; ?> li a span.accordeonckdesc { display: block;

I tried to change this part
Code:
/* style for all anchors on mouseover */ <?php echo $id; ?> li a:hover, <?php echo $id; ?> ul li a:focus { color: #56acd1; }

into
Code:
/* style for all anchors on mouseover */ <?php echo $id; ?> li a:hover, <?php echo $id; ?> li a:active, <?php echo $id; ?> ul li a:focus { color: #56acd1; background-color: #ffffff }

But nothing happends.

Can someone help?

Regards
Thomas

Hi
you must not use
a:active

but
a.active

this is a class, not a pseudoclass :)
