knowing what page we're on in a .TPL

Hi,

I have a template that uses links at the top of the page. They are mostly categories in the blog. I would like to make these reflect the page we're on so if it's category X that text is not a link and is a different color.

Are there variables that allow this or can I do a test on the current URL to make this happen? I'd know how to do it in php but not in the template.

Ideas and suggestions welcome!

The bulletproof template has this function built in. Basically what you need to do is copy the relevant php from bulletproofs config.inc.php and also the bits in index.tpl into your own template. Should be about 2 minutes work.

I feel like changing my signature top: "Serendipity: It's the people, not the software!"

Thanks Carl and as usual, thanks to Garvin for all he continues to do.
