   I've created active states for my site's navigation which can be seen at here. It works just as I want it to. Only problem I'm having is getting an active state implemented for the wp_loginout() function. I understand there will need to be a couple different urls in the conditional statement, but can't figure out the syntax.

   Here's my code. Please help me out if you can. Thanks!

   <div id="menu">
   	<a href="http://eatpointshoot.com/" <?php if ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/' ) echo " class='active' ";?>>recent</a>
   	<span class="space" style="margin-left:30px"></span>
   	<a href="http://eatpointshoot.com/?orderby=rand" <?php if ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/?orderby=rand' ) echo " class='active' ";?>>random</a>
   	<span class="space" style="margin-left:30px"></span>
   	<?php wp_loginout()?>
   	<span class="space" style="margin-left:30px"></span>
   	<a href="http://eatpointshoot.com/default-form"<?php if ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/default-form/' ) echo " class='active' ";?>>submit photos</a>
   </div>

   Is it single quotes?

   I'm sorry, Richard, is what single quotes? see my code above. All of the links are formatted how I want them, but I just need to figure out how to translate the "if" statement to work with the login link which uses WordPress's wp_loginout() function.

   Thanks for looking into it!

   How about something vaguely like this?

   <?php $blah = wp_loginout( false); ?>
   (your url) <?php if ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/' ) echo " class='active' ";?>

   Thanks again, Richard, but I tried this to no avail:

   <?php $userlogin = wp_loginout(); ?>
   
   <a href="$userlogin" <?php if ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/login/') || ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/login/?loggedout=true') || ( $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] == '/login/?action=register') echo " class='active' ";?>></a>

   I really think this is merely a php syntax issue. Any PHP wizards out there??

   I believe you have to put wp_loginout(false) - or it might be 'false' - to return it rather than echoing it.
