1. I can't figure out how to get the style of the selected nav bar item to be correct
the class "nav" is only applicable to links.
you can create a different class for the selected nav bar item
(maybe "navsel"?) that has to have the same setting as for
"nav" apart from the "color":
.navsel { font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size: smaller; color: #000000; }

3. I'm not sure how to grab xml.apache.org for use in the block top title bar and the xml.apache.org > news indicator
the title "xml.apache.org" on the home page can be
replaced by "Welcome", to follow the nav bar. this, after
all, is the page title (talking of which, <TITLE></TITLE>
is missing...), so "News", "Mission",
"Guidelines", etc... we're using text to make the handling
simpler and to not rely on images.
what I've used in other projects is PHP, setting variables for
each page that indicate primary, secondary, etc..., levels and print
the path accordingly, but I don't know if that's a route you may want
to consider. I'm sorry I don't have other suggestions, although
dropping the "xml.apache.org > news" bit won't affect the
overall design.
as somebody said, it was a good thing to have, though.

Have you tried the website under Netscape 4.7/Solaris ? the fonts of the leftside menu are very small. But it's more quick that the old website.
I've checked it with NC4.7 on Mac and Win: the fonts are small,
but still readable, better than when I tried imposing sizes in pt or
px. is it unreadable on yours?
