Don't underline current page link

Hello,

I have a site that uses includes. Each page has a text navigation bar of the
links in that section. The section "About Us" has three pages - location,
mission, philosophy - so each page has a navigation bar (which is an include)
like this:
Location | Mission | Philosophy
There is one include for each main section.

I wanted to have the links for the navigation bar all be underlined, EXCEPT
the link that designated the page you were actually on. So the Mission Page
would actually have a navigation bar that has Location and Philosophy
underlined, but not Mission.

I can do this without using includes - but can I do it without using a
separate include for each page? Is there a way to make a link know that it is
on a specific page and not have that specific link underlined?

Maybe I am asking too much!

Thanks,
Julie

Give each of those links a unique id, and style that id in the head of each
page to not have underlines, e.g.,

<a href="..." id="button1">...<a href="..." id="button2">...

with this CSS -

<style="text/css">

</style>
