CSS Navigation: Highlighting

Good morning,

I have been playing around with a pure CSS navigation drop-down menu and have come across a problem and was wondering if anyone could help.

I want the page that I am on to stay highlighted in white text with a green background like it does when you hover over it, I also want MENU 1 and MENU 2 to stay highlighted with white text when I hover over their sub-menus. I also am having massive trouble putting the bar into the center of the page or just a div container, I have tried other suggestions and can't get it to center.

Many thanks

You can try the following code.

{
    margin: 10px auto;
    width: 100%;
    display: inline-block;
    list-style-type: none;
}

{
    list-style:none;
    position:relative;
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    text-align: center;
}

#menu ul a

    display:block;
    color:#000000;
