I'd like some advise on how you handle marking website menus as
'selected' so that you can show different states based on which
section of a site you're in.
An example is using tabs like the illustration below. When in the
first section, the tab has an outline and when moved to the next
section, the second tab has the outline

+---------+
| Menu #1 |  Menu #2   Menu #3

         +---------+
Menu #1  | Menu #2 |  Menu #3

To clarify, I know how to do the CSS etc. I'm looking for best
practice on tracking this state in a Rails app.
Once way that I have thought of is to link the menu to the current controller
if controller == XYZ
  menu is selected
else
  menu is normal
end

This works in simple cases but doesn't work well when using nested resources.

Thanks for the help
