Here is a short tutorial of the issues related to navigation bars:

Here are some examples:

In addition to skipping the navigation bar, MAP should be used
to contain the collection of navigation bar links and header
should be used to indicate the main topics. Hopefully the
wide spread use of MAP and Headers (H1-H6) will eliminate the
"skip nav" link.

Some free tools that extend IE and Mozilla to implement header
and MAP navigation can be found at:
