Rendering menus in a Theme

I am displaying a series of menu items horizontally - like in the default WebSphere theme.

Due to the types of graphics our co. wants to use, when I am rendering each menu item I need to know its relative position in the list.

If my menu looks like:

home | work | stuff | stuff1

when I am creating this in my placebarinclude.jsp I need to know if its the first item (home) in the list or the third item(stuff). I don't care about the name of the menu item just its relative position in this list.

Is there a way to find this out with out coding my own counter?

Thx

If you are using portal 5.0.2.2..you can assign a unique custom name for each pages and use these names to identify the relative position while rendering the tabs
