distinguishing current page in menu

Hi....

I've searched high and low in the docs and can't seem to find an answer to this one problem I am having.

I run two versions of the menu on my site:
http://www.dracoblu.com
http://www.dracoblu.com/symbolistshow.html

The problem I am trying to solve is why the first URL listed above shows the location within the menu structure of what page you are currently viewing (ie. the text color is yellow, the same color when you mouse over), and the second menu doesn't? You will notice with the second menu the mouseover is on the background instead of the text, but I don't believe this to be the issue given how the Milonic menu differentiates background for current page visited....On a similar note, I think its pretty cool how the current Milonic menu also distinqishes the current sub-menu items with the arrows. How is that done?

Any help would be appreciated.... Thanks, Pat

From your first menu data file you have
Code:
pagecolor="#daa520";
pagebgcolor="#003366";
which will show the color in the menu to correspond to the page, but in the second data file you have
Code:
pagecolor="";
pagebgcolor="";
which means there's no color for the menu to show since you don't have one listed.
