I think, if I'm understanding it well, that you can do that with css.

Example: http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200501/turning_a_list_into_a_navigation_bar/ 

The quid is at step 10. This is done with diferent "id" for each <body> tag (you probably will have to code some php to change it dinamically...).
This example uses list but you can use it with whatever element.

Hi Heitor,

This would work for the primary nav in Drupal 5, but other menus that output .leaf couldn't be selected without altering the html using php.

Primary Nav:
<li class="menu-1-2-2"><a href="/example" class="menu-1-2-2">example</a></li>
<li class="menu-1-3-2"><a href="/example2" class="menu-1-3-2">example2</a></li>

Other:
<li class="leaf"><a href="/" class="active">example</a></li>
<li class="leaf"><a href="/">example</a></li>

A unique class or ID is needed.

The technique you refer to is useful, and I've used it before. It can be used to permanently highlight which section you are within on a site (on the primary nav), and combining this with styling the active .leaf (or child a) will allow you to highlight the subnavigation, also.
