Hi Jack,
Well looking at the source for the Artefactual menu you're trying to
replicate and checking the styles out in Firebug, I see that they are doing
basically what you're doing in your second example. But -- and hare's the
but you're wanting to avoid? -- the ol is arranged in reverse order to
compensate for that float right.

Someone else may have another method for achieving what you want in a
different way; if so, I'll learn something new, too :-)
HTH
Bill
