Yeah, maybe I should have mentioned that the site is mounted, so /index.html
doesn't solve the problem, as I need it to be /mount/<site>/index.html

But the solution with the parameter into the stylesheet seems pretty simple
and straightforward.
The solution with a separate file to contain the menu structure is very
useful, but a little bit more cumbersome.

Thanks for the tips, guys 'n' gals...
