ASP.NET MVC - Current Page highlighting in navigation

Question

I\'m wondering how is it possible to add a CSS Class to the current page in your navigation when using ASP.NET MVC 3? Here is my navigation in my _Layout.cshtml file:

<

Answer 1

In my case,assume I have a Home page and a menu.

Add a ViewBag.Active as a placeholder in Home page like this:

@{
   ViewBag.Title = "Home";
   ViewBag.Active = "Home";
}

Then place it to your li class as a condition to active it or not:

 

      @ViewBag.Title
