add active class to men, I actually don't know what I'm doing wrong

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 7

Hi every one. I actually don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I want to add class active to my menu and nothing works. I've tried with razor, javascript, jqyery. here is what i have tried. What am I doing wrong and why will it not work. :D

@foreach (var item in selection)

{

//string cssClass = @item.Id != CurrentPage.Id ? "" : "active";

// @Umbraco.If(item.IsAncestorOrSelf(Model.Content), "active", null)

// string cssClass = @item.Id != CurrentPage.Id ? "" : "active";

// if (item.Children.Where("TemplateId != 0 && Visible").Count() > 0)

// if (item.Name == Model.Content.Name, "active")

//<li class="nav-item @(item.IsAncestorOrSelf(Model.Content) ? "active")">

//var root = Model.Content.AncestorOrSelf(1);

//var active = "";

//if (item.Id != Model.Content.Id) { active = "active"; }

//if (item.Id == Model.Content.Siblings(1).Id)

//{

//}

<li class="@(item.IsAncestorOrSelf(Model.Content) ? "active" : null)">

<a class="nav-link smooth-scroll " href="@item.Url">@item.Name</a>

</li>

}

What you have should work but are you by chance using dynamics? You'd do this in that case: class="@(item.IsAncestorOrSelf(CurrentPage) ? "active" : null)"

Like this, but you don't want to do that: @{ var selection = @CurrentPage.AncestorOrSelf(1).Children.Where("Visible"); }

Any chance its a front end thing like the class being applied to an element you're not expecting?
