I have been searching the forums but have not been able to find anything. I am creating my own custom theme for Drupal. A really rough draft can be found here.

The design calls for tabbed navigation that will change depending on the section that you are in. All the tabs will be disabled except the current page which will be the same color as the page. To do this I need to be able to add an ID or class attribute to the link of the current page/section.

I think Ubuntu Linux uses Drupal - if so, I know this is possible because they have this type of tabbed navigation.

Anyone know how I can get this accomplished? I should note I'm very new to Drupal but have worked with several CMS's and scripts.
