As per F2F

I'm tending towards client-side JS. From this SO answer a gloriously simple query.

document.querySelectorAll('a[href="'+document.URL.substring(27)+'"]')[0].className = "current";

However, for / the logo gets in the way. 

var url = document.URL.substring(27);
if (url === '/'){
  document.querySelectorAll('a[href="'+url+'"]')[1].className = "current";
}
else {
  document.querySelectorAll('a[href="'+url+'"]')[0].className = "current";
}

Plus a style for .current. What do you think?

Gah! Running into specificity issues; need to learn CSS ;-)
