You have more or less destroyed all options by setting font-size in px
and making all dimensions in the menu depend on fixed dimensions, as
that means it's impossible to calculate a 'width' for the ul that'll
work across browser-land and browser-options.
Anyway, declaring a 'min-width' and/or a 'width' on the ul is the only
option left, but I can not come up with a value that'll work in all
browsers since they react differently on that font-size and the fixed
dimensions.
A more normal, and working, way is to let the anchors and list-items
resize and expand as/when needed, and let the menu-container - the ul -
adjust in both width and height to contain the list-items.
This means: a complete restyle-operation followed by thorough testing.
A start could then be...
ul.mainmenu li a {white-space: nowrap;}
ul.mainmenu {overflow: hidden; height: auto;}
* html ul.mainmenu {overflow: visible; height: 1%;}
...which actually works quite well as an addition/correction to what you
have, right out of the box. Can't take all that much font-resizing with
the existing background though.
