Nathan, thanks for showing me this. I understand the code, except I don't 
understand how you got by without using a conditional (if/else). If it were 
me, I would have written it like:

$categorys = array('home', 'services', 'gallery', 'about_us',
 'contact_us', 'testimonials');
 foreach($categorys as $category){
 $temp = str_replace("_", " ", $category);
if( $_GET['page'] != $category && $temp = '<a href="index.php?page='.
 $category .'">') {

echo <a href="index.php?page='.$category . '">'.$replace.'</a>';
} else {
 echo "<li>{$temp}</li>" ;
 }

I haven't tested this code, but this is how I would have thought about going 
about it. 

My questions are, is this wrong? is it amaturish?
