    Hi,

    I know this is old discussion, but this is different case.

    Im trying to highlight categories/tags buttons (placed on left) on this site http://www.deluxetemplates.net/ when category/tag is active, same as hover.

    I created a HTML code for those categories/tags, so Im not getting how to highlight those, to do with CSS (which I tried and was unlucky or PHP ?)

    I also, would like to highlight tags when post is active/open (this is less important).

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thanks

    Normally, WordPress should give your body tag certain classes. I think (not entirely sure) that the category name and tag names are in those classes. If so, then you can say this in the CSS:


    li.tag1 {

    }
    body.tag1 li.tag1 {

    }

    here css for one tag only

    background: url(“images/img-all.png”) no-repeat scroll 0 -311px transparent;
    color: #000000;

Bizarrely, the body has no classes. Usually WordPress gives it a load of classes.
try changing the body tag to this:

>

Then open the web-page, and inspect the element. Look at what the body’s id and classes are, and change the code above from
body.blogger-travel
to
body.
or
body#
