Hi MHH311,

It's a little cryptic what you're doing with the $linkNone variable, but I think the reason your "Home" node doesn't get the .selected class is because you specifically ask if the "current page or one of its ancestors ABOVE level 1" etc. - Home is probably at level 1, right?

Change the "greater than" (>) to "greater than or equal to" (>=) and see if that's not what you want...

Thanks for the suggestion Chriztian. I tried the suggestion you made and it did not work.  I assume this is what you meant to try?

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level &gt;= 1]/@id = $linkNone/@id">

I started this web site with a stater package (Kioak Standard Site)  so I cant explain the thinking behind the linkNone variable either.   I've learn alot about Umbraco, but the XSLTs are still pretty confusing to me at this point.

Here is the entire XSLT if that will help.  I left out the suggestion you made so you could see the original.   I still feel like the HOME being a related link to my topmost Node (Homepage) is the cause for the confusion but not sure how to handle it. Thanks for trying...
