How can the active tab in PHP be passed as a variable?

To pass the active tab in PHP as a variable, you can use a combination of HTML and PHP to dynamically set the active tab based on the current page. You can achieve this by using a conditional statement to check if the current page matches the tab, and then adding an 'active' class to the tab accordingly.

&lt;?php
$current_page = basename($_SERVER[&#039;PHP_SELF&#039;]);
?&gt;

&lt;ul class=&quot;nav&quot;&gt;
    &lt;li class=&quot;&lt;?php echo ($current_page == &#039;home.php&#039;) ? &#039;active&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;home.php&quot;&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li class=&quot;&lt;?php echo ($current_page == &#039;about.php&#039;) ? &#039;active&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;about.php&quot;&gt;About&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li class=&quot;&lt;?php echo ($current_page == &#039;contact.php&#039;) ? &#039;active&#039; : &#039;&#039;; ?&gt;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;contact.php&quot;&gt;Contact&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
