css button navigation that stays depressed when on page

[Dan V.]

I am looking for a great css button navigation tool that can allow me to:

- Ideally use Macromedia DreamWeaver 2004 mx.
- Use CSS buttons that allows the button to stay depressed when I am on a
certain page.
- have a constant top navigation and sub navigation

For example please visit my site at www.officeactivate.com. Though the
method I used works, I am looking for a quicker system, so that one can
change one button and it propagate to all pages.

thanks,
-Dan

Someone mentioned to me projectseven.com for CSS navigation.
Has anyone used them?
Can you have a top nav bar and left side sub navigation or do they always
have to be right next to each other?

thanks

You might want to take a look at:

http://www.alistapart.com/articles/keepingcurrent

It uses CSS and PHP to accomplish what I think you want. Any change
to your menu is made only once and will appear on all your web pages.
In addition, you will get a clear indication as to which page you are
on currently.

Thanks Bob, excellent link!

hosting Co...?.

Your hosting service must have PHP available to you.

You web pages will need to use the extension .php not .htm or .html,
etc.

Then just follow the directions very carefully. Trust me, if I could
figure it out, almost anyone can.
