Hello Developers, Today's tip title may be strange and need some clarification so i will first explain the title. When you use Drupal for development you may need to make different style for each page. To do so, you should have a unique ID for each page.
Today's tip will use the page path as an ID for the body.
1- open your template.php file.
2- find the following statement :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
3- paste the following code just before that statement :
<?php
$uri_path = trim($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/');
$uri_bits = explode('/', $uri_path);
if ($uri_bits[0] == '') {
$body_id = 'front';
} else {
$body_id = str_replace('/','-', $uri_path); // use dashes to replace slashes in the URI
}
$body_id = 'page-'.$body_id; // add 'page-' to the front of the id
$vars['body_id'] = $body_id;
?>
4- Inside the body tag, put the following identifier :
id="<?php print $body_id ?>"
so that your body tag will look like that :
<body id="<?php print $body_id ?>" <?php if (!empty($body_classes)) { echo 'class="'.$body_classes.'"'; } ?>>
AND ... That's it :)
That code in step 3 creates a variable that trims the path of your node, and converts the slash separator to dash separator, then put the path in a variable, that you can use as ID for your page.
