Showing the "current" page


Hope I can make my question intelligible.

How do I show the user's current location on a web site? Like the at the top of this page: "GIDForums > Webmaster Forums > Web Design Forum". Is there a PHP code for this or do I have to hard-code it in HTML?

I've tried searching Google and this forum but I guess I don't know the right search term because I can't find anything remotely close.

It is called breadcrumbs actually The above is being coded / pulled from a database. Google "breadcrumbs script" and it should help you locate what you need

Yeah, I would've never guessed that! :-) Thanks for the tip.

How are you coming along with developing these breadcrumb links on your site?

Usually, this works well with a database where you maintain parent->child relationships in the table and use a recursive function to build the links dynamically.

I found a site called Breadcrumbs for PHP Lovers and used the code on my site. It seems to work for right now, but I haven't gotten around to really nest my pages and test it out. Some of the comments on that page say that it has issues w/ pages nested 3+ deep, so I'll see what happens.
