I have studied Eric Meyer's article on Navigational Styles which gives 
direction on how to highlight a menu item to indicate that's the page a user is 
on.  It's a technique he uses on his Website here: 
http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/.  

The problem I have is that my site doesn't user server-side includes.  It uses 
ASP.NET and XML.  I have a header.aspx file where the constant text for every 
page is contained, which includes: <HEAD>, <TITLE>, and the beginning tag for 
<BODY>.  It also has the elements for the menu, which are formatted with 
styles, not tables.  I have put an ID on each menu item to uniquely identify 
it. For example:

<span id="home" class="navbaritem"><A HREF="/">Home</a></span>

Now the challenge is how to get the Home menu item to be formatted differently 
when the home page is rendered.  It's rendered through XML and the body of the 
page is in the CDATA tag, so I can't get to the navbaritem.

Can anyone think of a way to do this with styles?

Thanks!
Deb
