    Hi Lucy,

    One way you could do output page ID / name in a class in the body tag, is by using umbraco item-element http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/templates/umbracoitem-element

    So if you have a setup with template inheritance, go to the developer section, under templates, find your body tag an add class, after that you can output the pageID or page name by usig this.

    This gives you the pageID in the class

     <body class="<umbraco:Item field="pageID" runat="server" />">

    And the line here will give you the name of the page

     <body class="<umbraco:Item field="pageName" runat="server" />">

    or the id of the template that the page are using.

     <body class="<umbraco:Item field="template" runat="server" />">

    I hope this make sense to you if not just keep asking and I will try to help you.

    /Dennis

    I'd recommend prefixing the pageID with some letters, since a CSS class name cannot (should not!) start with a number. So for example, a simple correction to Dennis's first example,

    <body class="pageid-<umbraco:Item field="pageID" runat="server" />">

    Good luck!
