Editing a custom child page dynamic menu

Hi all,

I’ve got a custom “menu” of sorts that is dynamically created when the page is a child or parent. I like this versus a custom menu in this instance because my client isn’t going to want to create all the separate menus. Anyway, what I’ve got is almost there. It’s working, but has a couple of things I’d like to change.

Here’s the current code:

<?php if($post->post_parent) {
	  $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."&echo=0");
	} else {
	  $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->ID."&echo=0");
	}
	if ($children) { ?>

		<ul>
		  <?php echo $children; ?>
		</ul>

	<?php } ?>

With this, the child pages show up in a UL. The problem is that when a child page is selected, it still shows the child page in the ul, but the parent page is no longer linked. Is there a way to add the link to the parent page as the first link in the ul, then remove the child page that is active?

Any help would be great. Thanks!
