Assign each of the table cells an ID, and your TABLE a class (navbar).
Then, if you do a site wide css-sheet, add this inside the <HEAD> of
your standard_html_footer:
<dtml-var style_sheet>

and style sheet would look something like this:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!-- /* Hide content from old browsers */

.navbar TD { background-color: orange; }

<dtml-if here_css><dtml-var here_css></dtml-if>
/* end hiding */ -->

and then in your here_css, which goes in the folder you want to be the
"titulo" section.

TD#Titulo { background-color: blue; }

So, this would make the background chage from orange to blue when you
were in the right area.

In fact, I think I'll go implement this on my site :-)
