Default Need Help/ Electrical problem !!

I have a 97-GLX Jetta VR-6. Problem is with the brake lights. The brake lights work fine during the day but, at night, when I turn the headlight switch to the "on" position, not only do the tail lights come on but, also the brake lights, and they stay on !! I believe there is a short in the circuit somewhere. Has anyone had this problem or have any ideas on how to resolve this matter? THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ALL THAT REPLY !!
