how to do this? please help me to get rid of this problem.i need to implement in my wordpress website.

Answer 1

To highlight page 1 and page 2 use current-menu-parent class

Answer 2

It'll be done with CSS and an active class. Check the coding on the front end to see what wordpress has added for active page. On one setup we have the class menu-item and current_page_item is added so you could style those.
