Default Landing Light Switch

Hi All.
Had this annoying problem with our landing light sice we moved in, just
getting round to trying to sort it out, (only ten years!)
In our hall with have a double wall switch that operates the hall light and
the landing light up the stairs. Upstairs there is a single switch which
operates the landing light.
Now unless the upstairs switch is switched on, when you go to switch on the
light from downstairs it doesn't work! Problem is once you are upstairs you
switch it off at night, in the morning when it's light no need for the
light, so you go on your way untill the evening when you are ready for bed
you go to switch the light on and it doesn't work because you didn't switch
it on the night before/morning.
If wired correctly surely it should be switched on downstairs no matter what
position the switch upstairs is at?
Hope this is clear, if so please explain to me as i'm totally confused!!!!
Can some one help or direct me to a website that describes the correct
wiring ?
