   I want to highlight the current category link on the navbar, similar to the way it can be done with pages. This is what I am currently using for the style for pages - what would I do for categories?

   .current_page_item a, .current_page_item a:hover {
   background: #000000 !important;
   color: #DA2048 !important;
   }

   What about reading the documentation?
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories#Markup_and_Styling_of_Category_Lists

   I have this in my stylesheet, and it's not working. Already checked that Moshu.

   .current_cat a, .current_cat a:hover {
   background: #000000 !important;
   color: #DA2048 !important;
   }

   Hey Brian,
   I think WP adds current-cat (dash, not underscore)

   Dang. Here I read the Codex and still screw it up - perhaps copy and paste will work better. Hard to teach an old dog new tricks. It's working, thanks Moshu.
