personally, I wouldn't add the second id. However, you may be working with a nested set of links. The current id says, show the nested list, the active says, this is the active link
We are using something similar for the topnav on this web site: www.csatravelprotection.com Instead of #current, we are using a class on the body and an id on the list. When the two match, it shows the nested list. If the two don't match, the nested list is hidden.

Why second ID instead of simply using "#active a" selector? -- regards, Kornel Lesiński ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
