See xml nav dropdown example @ [http://www.newyorkjets.com/](http://www.newyorkjets.com/)

The nav dropdown highlights a nav menu and sub menu on whether html page it is current on. It appears that this swf use object/embled parameters to pass info which menu to highlight (this site use swfobject script):

```auto

navigation.addVariable("mainNav", "gameday");
    navigation.addVariable("subNav", "gameday_stadium");
    navigation.addVariable("navBarXML", "/xml/navigation.xml");
    navigation.addVariable("activate_search", "true");

```

I ain’t a xml/as genius and this nav is def. tough challenge and no idea where to start. So I am wondering if there’s tutorial, example file or point me to right direction how to accomplish similar this nav?

Have a good holiday!
