    So im creating a new wordpress site and i have a mixed navigation that uses pages and categories:

    <div id="access">
    <div class="nav-wrap" >
    <ul class="group" id="example-one">
    <?php wp_list_pages(‘&title_li’); ?><?php wp_list_categories(‘exclude=1&title_li’); ?></ul>
    </div>
    </div>

    I’ve got magic line working on the pages just fine. It even does the line under the category. However if im on the a category page the line break and defaults to the 1st page.

    Perhaps im not targeting the current category properly.

    CSS:

    .nav-wrap {margin-left:165px;}
    .group:after { visibility: hidden; display: block; font-size: 0; content: " "; clear: both; height: 0; }
    *:first-child+html .group { zoom: 1; } /* IE7 */

    #example-one { margin: 0 auto; list-style: none; position: relative; width: 960px; }
    #example-one li { display: inline; }
    #example-one li a { color: #fff; font-size: 14px; display: block; float: left; padding: 6px 10px 4px 10px; text-decoration: none; text-transform: uppercase; }
    #nav-one li a:hover { color: white; }
    #magic-line { position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0; width: 100px; height: 3px; background: #fff; }

    .current_page_item a, .current_page_item_two a { color: white !important; }
    .current-cat a, .current-cat_two a { color: white !important; }

    The last line is the way im trying… but who knows im fairly new.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Can anyone help with this?

    My nav now works pretty much after hacking the nav

    Code:
    <div id="header">
    <?php $tcat = 3;?>
    <?php $category_link = get_category_link( $tcat );?>

    <div id="access">
    <div class="nav-wrap" >
    <ul class="group" id="example-one">
    <?php wp_list_pages(‘&title_li’); ?>

    <li <?php if(is_category($tcat)) echo ‘ class="current_page_item"’; ?>><a href="<?php echo $category_link; ?>" title="Competitions">Competitions</a></li>
    </ul>
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

    BUT now when im on a single post obviously the current_page_item isn’t highlighted, anyone know how to get this working?
