While that [link] is clever, it still doesn't provide a "same code" 
solution for each page. Instead, you still must provide something 
unique on each page (i.e., body id="") for the menu-set to use. As 
such, you might as well hand-code each menu as per each page.

There is NOT a css solution to this "Sticky Menu" problem -- there is 
no way for css to know what page it is on unless it gets the 
information from a server-side provider (i.e., php, shtml, whatever) 
-- now let's see someone prove me wrong.
