    I spent hours to figure out how to highlight static “home” page. Part of my header:

    <div id="navigacija">
		<ul id="nav">
			<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
			<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=2&sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
		</ul>
	</div>

    and CSS (thanx to Esmi) for active tab menu highlight:
    #nav .current_page_item,#nav .current_page_parent,#nav .current_page_ancestor {background:#000;color:#fff;}

    <div id="navigacija">
<ul id="nav">
<li<?php if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) echo ' class="current_page_item";?>)><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=2&sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
</ul>
</div>

    hmmm, something is wrong in:
    <li<?php if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) echo ' class="current_page_item";?>)><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>

    I’ve got a error message:

    Parse error: parse error, expecting ','' or‘;” in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-content\themes\AKM\header.php on line 59

    Try:

    <li<?php if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) echo ' class="current_page_item"';?>)><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>

    I’m sorry, something gone wrong ??
    Yes, I have “Home” tab highlighted, but it occupied navigation bar and pushed other tabs down below. I mean, whole navigation bar becomes “Home” tab with mouse over effect.
    I’m sorry.

    Site url?

    it is on my localhost, wampserver, and thanks to you Esmi, here is the code that works perfectly:
    #nav .current_page_item, #nav .current_page_parent, #nav .current_page_ancestor {background:#000;color:#fff;}

    and in header.php:

    <div id="navigacija">
		<ul id="nav">
			<li class="<?php if (is_front_page()) { echo "current_page_item"; } ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">home</a></li>
			<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=2&sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
		</ul>
	</div>
