In a navigation bar, be sure to mark the current page viewed, and don’t link the current page. If the navigation bar shows several levels, mark the ancestors of the ancestors of the current page as needed to make the hierarchical position obvious.
“You are here” indicators include such simple techniques as marking the current location with a little arrow or triangle and coloring the name of the current page.
For instance, in this example, the current page is for the product called QuickCrisp Deluxe, so it is unlinked, it falls into the Toasters category, so the Toasters link is in bold. Toasters is still linked so that the use can easily navigate up a level.
