ASP.Net Menu Control (Look like tabs)

Sorry for a re-post but there was no response in the other group.

I am trying to replicate a menu similar to www.prosper.com which I
find very simple and clean.

I actually have it working with some custom code but I thought it
might be more maintainable if I convert to an ASP.Net 2.0 menu
control
with a sitemap. However, I am having trouble.

I figure I need two menu controls? I was able to create the top level
by setting one menu control to horizontal and not alow any dynamic
levels.

How do I get a second menu control to respond to the selected node in
the first menu control?

Also, if a sub menu item is selected how do I still keep the top
level
"tab" shown as selected?

Lastly, what is the best way to put a gap between top level items so
they appear as individual tabs? I tried adding a white border but it
doubles up for some reason.

Thank you very much for your time!

I built that type of menu using LinkButtons but note it is not dynamically
configurable meaning if I wanted a new menu item it would not be generated
by SiteMap declarations. LinkButtons are a good place to start. Good luck
with it...
