News Title not Selected

[Detox]

For some odd ball reason my news articles are not being selected when they are being echo out with the titles.

I've been trying to get help from all different sort of community but nothing seems to be working.

Code that is being used to echo that out.

<?php
if($news_id !== $a['id'])
{
    echo "<a href='".$path."/news/".$a['id']."'  class='article-".$a['id'].",selected'>";
}
?>

Your classes are formatted wrong

Your code:

<?php
if($news_id !== $a['id'])
{
    echo "<a href='".$path."/news/".$a['id']."'  class='article-".$a['id'].",selected'>";
}
?>

Correct code:

<?php
if($news_id !== $a['id'])
{
    echo "<a href='".$path."/news/".$a['id']."'  class='article-".$a['id']." selected'>";
}
?>

See the difference? The class attribute is allowed multiple classes but are separated by a space, not a ,
If this doesn't fix it then ensure you have the css code for class "selected"

That doesn't fix it. I know selected is in my CSS fine because when I used this code.

I get this cleaner look without the selected

I hope all of this is making sense.
