Highlighting current menu item

I have sub-menus on my site, however, when I'm on one of the pages that is listed under another menu item, all the other pages including the parent are highlighted as the current menu item.

My development site is: bcstest1.org/index.php/facultystaff/faculty

Hi,

Current item has the css clases: .active and .current , his root parent has classes .active and .parent .Using this classes you can achieve desired functionality.

This is current css rule:

template_css.php

.column_right li.active a, .column_left li.active a:link, .column_left li.active a:visited {
color: #13752A !important;
}

I found the line in the template_css.css file, I have tried several different things but I can't figure out what to change. Can you provide the more info?
Thanks!

You can just comment that with /* ... */ then add

.current
{
color: #13752A !important;
}

Well, that didn't work.
It is no longer changing any menu text colors. The icons are working, just not the text.

Here's what the code looks like.
/*
.column_right li.active a, .column_left li.active a:link, .column_left li.active a:visited {
color:<?php echo $mainMenuTextActive; ?> !important;
}
*/

.current
{
color:<?php echo $mainMenuTextActive; ?> !important;
}

Hi, jus add a like this:

.current a
{
color:<?php echo $mainMenuTextActive; ?> !important;
}
