If Statement Help

[LittleOrbit]

I created a custom navigation for my forums. I want to be able to set an 'active' class on my Members link if you are on the Members page. How would I go about doing this?

I was hoping to do something like if (on the member_page) { set the 'active' class }; I have tried with PHP, but I couldn't get this to work within the template file.

Is this code for IPB 4. I am using IPB 3.x. How would you convert the code, above, for <if test="{condition}><li><a href="" class="active">MEMBERS</a></if>?

My work around in 3.X was the following code.

<if test="applicationsloop:|:is_array($header_items['applications']) AND count($header_items['applications'])">
    <foreach loop="applications:$header_items['applications'] as $data">
        <if test="showingapp:|:$data['app_show']">
            <if test="IPSLib::getAppTitle($data['app_dir'])=='Members' AND $data['app_active']==1">
                <span class="mainNavLink_sub mainNav-community" id="mainNav-members" style="display: none;" active="true"><a class="mainNavLink_sub_highlight" title="Members" href="/members/" active="true">MEMBERS</a></span>
                <span class="mainNavLink_sub mainNav-community" id="mainNav-forums" style="display: none;" active="true"><a class="content" href="/" title="Forums">FORUMS</a></span>
            </if>
            <if test="IPSLib::getAppTitle($data['app_dir'])=='Forums' AND $data['app_active']==1">
                <span class="mainNavLink_sub mainNav-community" id="mainNav-members" style="display: none;" active="true"><a class="content" title="Members" href="/members/">MEMBERS</a></span>
                <span class="mainNavLink_sub mainNav-community" id="mainNav-forums" style="display: none;" active="true"><a class="mainNavLink_sub_highlight" href="/" title="Forums" active="true">FORUMS</a></span>
            </if>
        </if>
    </foreach>
</if>
