appearance of parent-menu choice

Hi you all
The active menu-choice on my website is turned gray. That is intentional.
in my menu when visiting a submenu, the parent-menuchoice remains gray.
I presume that this is 'standard CSS', but I cannot find the proper code in frontend-CSS.
What line defines the appearance of a parent-menu choice?

Hi dick265,
which menu-system did you use?

the standard as far as I know . . .
Tnx

Hi dick265,

NAV_TABLE is a mix of adjustments by conf.template_default.inc.php and frontend.css.

Take a look at your conf.template_default.inc.php.
// navigation table defaults
$template_default["nav_table_struct"]........

You can create own classes for your NAV_TABLE.

Have a look two at:
* sublevel layout
* ===============
* setup unique style for each node/level
* ['array_struct'][1] => the number represents level ID
* so root level is [0] and so on...

$template_default["nav_table_struct"]['array_struct'][1]........

Duplicate all these lines for creating adjustments to every sublevel.

Hi
this is the code:

.nav_table, .nav_table a, .nav_table a:link, .nav_table a:active, .nav_table a:visited, .nav_table a:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}
.nav_table a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}

.nav_table_active, .nav_table_active a, .nav_table_active a:link, .nav_table_active a:active, .nav_table_active a:visited, .nav_table_active a:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #4A5966;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
}

Hi Knut
I more or less understand what you mean.
But I think I'm asking something else:

If this is my menustructure

-Father
--Son1
--Son2
---Grandson2a
---Grandson2b

this is what happens
After clicking on -Father I' arrive at the level where I can choose a Son.
Father is turned Gray. This is good.
Then I choose Son2 and arrive at the 3th level where I can choose Grandson 2a or Grandson2b.
Son2 is now gray, this is good too.
But Father stays gray and that is wrong.

Now the question is: how is it called this visited father of the current level:
I tried
NAV_TABLE_ACTIVE A:VISITED but that is not it. So do you have any suggestions?

thanks in advance
Dick

In your mind, what should it be? If you are not on that level, it seems it should be gray, no? Perhaps, I misunderstand

Which are you using:
{NAV_TABLE_SIMPLE}
{NAV_TABLE_COLUMN}
{NAV_TABLE_COLUMN:integer}

hi
when I reach the level grandson2a, father should be 'normal', that is not grey but white text.
I think I use SIMPLE,that is all I can find in conf.template_default.inc.php.
does this help?

Hi dick265,

there is a switch at conf.template_default.inc.php called:
$template_default["nav_table_struct"]["all_nodes_active"] = 1;
For your reason it is 0
