For details on this phenomenon, see

The workaround is to apply "display: inline;" to the floated element.
Because floated elements are always treated as block elements, this
declaration has no side-effects in any standards-compliant browser.
And it will get rid of the extra space on the sides of your floated
<li> elements.
