How to Change Width in Menu Item

Hello, I am a total noob. I got Expressions Web 4 a few days ago (because its free for students), and have been messing around with it. I intend to take classes, but in the interim I'm learning the hard way. If "Menu Item" isn't the right word for what I'm talking about, I apologize.

I'm trying to make a javascript dropdown menu. I found a youtube video linking me to a website. The problem is that the menu items that you hover over to get to drop down seem to be fixed in width. If the name is too long, it puts it onto two lines, and I just want it to be wider so it can be on one line. Here is the website with the code

Could you please help me out? Thanks a bunch!

I got Expressions Web 4

May I suggest that you 'unget' it and use something that doesn't produce poor code.

Aptana studio is free, as is Amaya and NVU, all of those create code that you can study and learn from. Using apps like Expression Web or DreamWeaver you only learn to use the applications, not how to develop web site documents.


For ASP.NET development there is MonoDevelop and Webbo which is is an ASP.NET extension for SharpDevelop


And they ALL
