I have a site where the client wants the sidebar navigation to jump to anchor links in the page’s text—I’ve set up those page sections as their own entries, so that they have their own url titles, etc…but now I would like to make the navigation items have an “active” class based on which anchor the user has clicked on…possible?  I know if there weren’t anchor links involved, it’d be a simple if conditional based with the segment id and the url title, but am at a loss with what to do when there’s a “#” involved… any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Karen

Sounds like you might need to search all segment for the presence of the currently active anchor: http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/segment-search

Hope that helps.

Very helpful, thanks John!  It’s close enough for what I need - too bad it can’t parse things like “url_title”, but maybe this will help talk my client out of using anchor tags for navigation in the first place 😉
