change link property dependent upon page viewer is on

[occas]

i have pages set up using css classes for hyperlinks.

a.buttons:link {
etc.
}

i would like to put a second hyperlink class to the page.
say :
a.buttonstwo.link {
etc.
}
if i know what page the view is on, i would be able to assign that class to the particular link. two problems.
i don't know how to determine the page the user is on. and how do i change the class of the hyperlink. i can do this with asp.net using :
request.rawurl to determine the page and
hyperlink1.cssclass = "buttonstwo" for the link switch.
would like to do it without the asp.net or at least know how.

I would have thought that if you want different styles on different pages, you would include different CSS files on each page... Or just have one CSS file with different class names for the links on each page...

Hope this helps,

If you're using a headre control, do you have access to server-side scripting (ASP, PHP, JSP, etc)?

If so, you could parsethe filename and switch classes dynamically.
