jQuery Highlight Navigation Menu v.02 Script

I have found a simpler way to add class=”selected” to any navigation menu by checking your URL path against links on the page. I’ve only tested this with page slugs in wordpress. But it works very nicely.

        jQuery(document).ready(function(){
             var path = location.pathname;
              jQuery("a[href$='" + path + "']").addClass("selected");
     });
