I use a combination of id's on my links in my menu with a class on my body tag
like this:
<body class="home"> <!-- change this class to match the page you are on -->
<ul>
<li><a href="#" id="home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#" id="aboutus">About Us</a></li>
<li><a href="#" id="contactus">Contact Us</a></li>
</ul>
</body>
And I make a css entry in my stylesheet to handle all the active pages:
.home #home,
.aboutus #aboutus,
.contactus #contactus
{
/* active page css here */
}
