Description

On jqueryui.com, click demos. The demos menu item is highlighted.
Now click on any element on the left hand-side menu e.g. Draggable, the demos menu item is no longer highlighted, so the user has no way of knowing he actually is under the demos menu.

This does not happen on the api docs. When that menu item is selected, it gets highlighted and remains so when an item in the left hand-side menu is selected.

As long as the user is under the demos menu item, that menu item should be highlighted
