li menu needs class of “selected”

Question

here is my attempt but its not working. if you click the home button it does

Answer 1

As far as I can tell from your CSS, you haven't defined any styles for the selected class.

Assigning that class to your li isn't enough. You also need to style the class in the way you'd like.

.selected{
 background-color:#fff;
}

(etc)
