If all you want is bold red text for the link make these changes

 in the CSS;
.selected a{     <-- reverse the .selected and the A
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
}

And in the html;
<ul id="navlist">
<li><a href="/index.ws">Home</a></li> |
<li><a href="/who/index.ws">Who are we?</a></li> |
<li><a href="/why/index.ws">Why Us?</a></li> |
<li><a href="/approach/index.ws">Our Approach</a></li> |

<li class="selected"><a href="/clients/index.ws" >Clients</a></li> | <---  
move the selector from the anchor to the * <li>* and use double quotes not 
single......

<li><a href="/talk/index.ws">Lets Talk</a></li>
</ul>

Tested locally in FF 1.5.0.4 and IE 6.0 win xp pro sp2...
