Joomla 3: How do I call an article from a menu item and show that menu as active?

I have a standard navigation menu on my banner. Then I have another menu below that, in my body area, and this is used made to appear as 'tabs' by using css styling. Thus each tab (actually menu) has its own articles.

Now, When I click a tab, the article shows. But I have a link to the first tab on the top menu (in my banner). This links to the article in the first tab. When the menu item in the banner is clicked, the first tab's article shows fine. But it does not show the first tab as active. The first tab only shows as the active link when I click it.

How do I make the tab (menu item) active when the menu item in the banner is clicked?

To better illustrate this, I've included a screenshot. enter image description here Thanks!

First you need to put both menus into one single menu since the second is basically a submenu of the first. After that is done you "split" the in two modules: For the top menu you set the module options to "Start Level" 1 and "End Level" 1. And "Show Sub-menu Items" is set to "No". The second module has the "Start Level" set to 2.

That should probably do what you want to do.
