how does this work for you?:

ul
{                               
        list-style: none;
        text-align: center;
        padding: 0;                     
        line-height: 170%;      
        font-size: .7em;
}

ul:after
{
        clear: left;
        content: "";
        display: block; 
}

ul li
{
        display: inline;
        white-space: nowrap;
}

ul li {
        border-left: 1px solid #999;
        margin-left: 5px;
        padding-left: 8px;
}

ul li.First {
        border-left: none;
        margin-left: 0;
        padding-left: 0;
}
