Abstract: A method and system of dynamically altering the contents of a web page. The method comprises the steps of providing a web page having a title selected in accordance with a pre-defined naming convention, and providing a style sheet having pre-defined style attributes. The method further comprises the steps of selecting the web page, reading the title and identifying a section name based on the title, and altering the pre-defined style attributes based on the section name. This invention allows the Web page developer to highlight the active section of the site within the left-hand navigation (or anywhere on the page, if desired) using CSS and JAVA Script. No manual intervention is required. As new pages are added to the Web site, the developer simply follows the established naming convention, and the appropriate section will automatically be highlighted.
