Initial Code 
$menu = &JSite::getMenu();
$isHome = false;
if ($menu->getActive() == $menu->getDefault()) : $isHome = true; 
endif;
Initial URL 
http://portal.hrpr.com/joomla-15-templates-conditional-statements
Initial Description 
I set up an $isHome boolean variable at the beginning of a template's index.php file so I can easily test the condition throughout the file. To me, the semantic variable name makes the logic more readable.

Joomla Frontpage conditional
