I am having trouble getting my drop down navigation menu to work. The main issue is when I zoom out in Google Chrome, the menu starts wrapping and dropping to a 2nd line, causing all other divs on the page to wrap too.
I have searched across the internet to find a solution but nothing seems to work. Thanks for your advice.
Html:
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">About us</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Quality</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Processes</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Markets</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Products</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Product information</a></li>

<li><a href="#">Prod numb Seven</a></li>
<li><a href="#">More products eight</a></li>
<li><a href="#">More prods, prods and products</a></li>
