.siteNav ul li a:active { background:url(images/navbuttongreen.gif) no-repeat 0px 0px; color: lime; height: 26px; width: 94px; line-height: 26px; }
 
#sectionhome #menuhome a,

#sectionservices #menuservices a
{ background:url(images/navbuttonorange.jpg) no-repeat 0px 0px; color: lime; height: 29px; width: 94px; line-height: 29px; padding-top: 0px; margin-top: -3px; cursor: default; }

</style>

<?php
define('THIS_PAGE', 'pagename');
 
$menuitem1 = '<a href="highlighthome.php">Home</a>';
$menuitem2 = '<a href="highlightabout.php">About Us</a>';
$menuitem3 = '<a href="highlightservices.php">Services</a>';
 
switch (THIS_PAGE) {
 
case 'Home':
$menuitem1 = '<a style="background: #1A4572 url(current.jpg) no-repeat top left; color: #fff; height: 29px; width: 94px; line-height: 29px; padding-top: 0px; margin-top: -3px; cursor: default;" href="#nogo">Home</a>';
break;
 
case 'About':
$menuitem2 = '<a style="background:#1a4572 url(current.jpg) no-repeat top left; color: #fff; height: 29px; width: 94px; line-height: 29px; padding-top: 0px; margin-top: -3px; cursor: default;" href="#nogo">About Us</a>';
break;
 
case 'Services':
$menuitem3 = '<a style="background:#1A4572 url(current.jpg) no-repeat top left; color: #fff; height: 29px; width: 94px; line-height: 29px; padding-top: 0px; margin-top: -3px; cursor: default;" href="#nogo">Services</a>';
break;
 
default:
break;
}
 
echo '<ul>
<li>'.$menuitem1.'</li>
<li>'.$menuitem2.'</li>
<li>'.$menuitem3.'</li>
</ul>';
?>

<html>
<head><title>Home</title></head>
<body style="background:#1a4572">
    <div class="siteNav noborder">
           <?php
                  define('THIS_PAGE', 'Home');
                  include('menu.inc');
           ?>
     </div>
</body>
</html>
