1. Question: Why are the menus and category menus not put into unorder lists.  The add a class of li_selected and li_unselected but technically they are not in li's.  Is there a way to have the parent category highlighted AND the child category link highlighted in the side category menu?  

2. We added a UL for a "flyout" menu to view the sub categories from other pages, BUT I can not access the parent category and get that to highlight when I am in a "sub category".  

Is there a way to access the current parent category, highlight it, and highlight the current child category at the same time?

Thanks in advance, please help.
