First some explanation.... As I further make my transition to Web Designer from Web Developer I could use some more assistance from the group. Here are 2 prototype pages I am working on currently. I will be using DHML on the lighter blue navigation bar to make drop down menus. I will also be adding an alternate link for the news so it does not rely solely on the Flash Application.

This is a learning process for me. The client wants this site and the realted sites to have use the latest web technologies as a showcase for what can be done on the web. I decided to use XML and Flash and HTML, CSS and DHML. I feel this will be excellent technologies to showcase. I also want to keep the KISS Principle in mind. Now for the questions... Should I be using tables still to layout my page? If not, should I switch to Layers? If I switch to Layers, how far back are they supported in browser technology? Additionally, how cross browser are they? If I stick to tables, does anyone know how to define the medium font size for text in tables without messing up accessibility? The text is always a size larger in the tables than the surrounding white space in Internet Explorer (the most used browser visiting the client's site by nearly 90%) and Firefox. Should I be overly worried about accessibility on a commercial site? Thanks for the help on my last query. I'm implementing the changes and some others suggested by the membership this week.
