<a name="top" id="navigation-top"></a>
    <?php if ($primary_links || $secondary_links || $navbar): ?>
      <div id="skip-to-nav"><a href="#navigation"><?php print t('Skip to Navigation'); ?></a></div>

I haven't worked with Zen, but it looks like it's (a) testing to see whether there are any primary links, secondary links, or navbar items; and (b) if there are, inserting a link that reads "Skip to Navigation" and takes the user to the anchor with the title "navigation" (I presume that's in the region where those link blocks are usually put in Zen).

the amazing thing is the style of "Skip to Navigation" color is white. it's too hard to find the link.

When you first visit a site you can click the tab key and then press enter. It takes you past the header and links to the area where your first article is. This is a accessibility thing.
