Menu highlighting

Hey there…

i am having trouble highlighting a link as a current item. i am using the “flexi page widget” and it is showing these classes:

<ul>
<li id="flexi-pages-1" class="widget flexipages_widget"><ul>
<li class="page_item page-item-1"><a href="#" title="About">About</a></li>
<li class="page_item page-item-3 current_page_ancestor current_page_parent"><a href="#" title="Products">Products</a>
<ul>
<li class="page_item page-item-6 current_page_item"><a href="#" title="Products One">Products One</a></li>
<li class="page_item page-item-4 current_page_item"><a href="#" title="Products Two">Products Two</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="page_item page-item-10"><a href="#" title="Contact">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

if i set theses clasess “current_page_ancestor” and/or “current_page_parent” the children also show as current.

what am i doing wrong? please help!
