Hi @iamRDM

To get this to work with my [website](http://stevenwatson.co.uk/about “”), I had to add a class to my CSS file called;

`current_page_item` and add the styles within this, I however used the Starkers Barebones theme.

Hope this helps…

Watson is right, wordpress adds a default class “current_page_item” to the current page, So you can write your css for it.
