How to get nav in bootstrap 3 running under xPages to show the active page

Question

I am trying to create an application in xPages using bootstrap 3 instead of using the bootstrap4xpages extension library.

How do I dynamically have a nav show the active page in xPages? I would like to use the nav as a custom control.

Alternatively I guess I could style the existing application navigator with bootstrap styles to get the same functionality.

This was asked a while back and somehow I missed it. But if you are still using your manual implementation of bootstrap 3, then I suggest using a repeat control for your menu items or do them manually and compute the style class as Tim suggested. In order to provide a more detailed answer we need more information about your use case and what you're trying to accomplish.
