How to properly build a navigation menu that highlights the current page

Question

I\'ve setup a menu for a fairly simple site based on icant.co.uk. It\'s fairly simple with maybe 5 pages. The small site is mainly a mysql browser for a few tables using MATE.

Answer 1

A more concise way of doing it (if you have short tags enabled) would be:

">Link Name

It performs the same function as the first answer, just more concisely.
