Hi Jost and Philipp,

thanks for your answers!

I see. Good idea.

However, that means that the editors have to add this class to the according 
pages by hand - and I fear that is not optimal: When pages are moved they 
might end up with wrong classes at wrong places. That would give editors the 
possibility to mess up the menu (even without any bad intention).

Thank you for the hint. I think I should check my TypoScript setup for such 
cases now.....

If I remember correctly class names are not allowed to start with a number; 
I would then have to create something like
class="no menuid-{field:uid}".

Yes; what I want to find is a way, where
a) my editors cannot manipulate these class names themselves and where
b) TYPO3 adds the _right_ class names automatically (also after pages have 
been moved around.

Cheers!
