I am totally new to web design so please forgive my lack of "professional" vocab lol. In my site, when you click on an option on my menu bar on the right side the menu option is highlighted once you reach that page. For example, if I click "English Language Arts" I am taken to the English Language Arts page and English Language Arts is then highlighted on the right side. I have subpages linked on each page, when I click on of the subpages (Grade 1 is the only one I am working with right now) within the English Language Arts section it takes me to that page, but instead of having English Language Arts highlighted in the menu it highlights home. I have dug through the HTML, but I can't figure out how to change it even though I am sure it is simple! Can anyone help?
