I tried this but it didnt help at ul li
border-style: solid;

Try this remove bottom: 0 from line 88 in the JSFiddle and add border.
/* at line 88 in JSFiddle change this */
#cssmenu ul ul {
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
/* to this */
#cssmenu ul ul {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
left: 0;
}
By setting bottom: 0 you're effectively telling your dropdown menu's ul to have a height of 0 and therefore the border only looks like it's applied to the top of the dropdown.

How can I draw border line between cell and cell?

I want to make line between cell and cell, but IDK how to make it. So I made left line instead of center line. I write this question to improve this design. (cell's left line > line between cell and cell)
#menu li,
#menu li a {
display: table-cell;
border-bottom: 1px solid #DCDCDC;
}
#menu>li {
border-left: 1px solid #DCDCDC;
}
#menu>li>a {
display: table-cell;
outline: inherit;
outline-color: black;
}
#menu>li.active>a {
color: white;
background: #F2B470;
}
<div class="menu-bar">
<div id="menu">
<li class="active"><a href='#'>menu 1</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>menu 2</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>menu 3</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>menu 4</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>menu 5</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>menu 6</a></li>
</div>
</div>
Make it simple, is this is what you looking for?
#menu li,
#menu li a {
display: inline-block;
}
li a {
display: inline-block;
padding: 0 10px;
border-left: 1px solid black;
}
#menu > li.active > a {
color: white;
background: #F2B470;
}
<div class="menu-bar">
<div id="menu">
<li class="active"><a href='#'>menu 1</a></li>

At runtime the menu is not occupying all the horizontal space :
So how to make the menu fill the remaining space like in this image :
ul.dropdown {
background: #000 url(../images/menuLight.png) repeat-x top left;
}
Use flex layout. I add following code to the bottom of your CSS and it did the trick:
#divmenuppal > .dropdown {
display: flex;
}
.dropdown .menuppal:last-child {
flex-grow: 1;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/w2n79nsy/
ok I found it from #SunilDalal's answer :
ul.dropdown {
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 100%;
background: #000 url('menuLight.png') repeat-x top left;
}

Right aligning last nav menu pop up with CSS

I'm looking to right align the "pop-up" menu of my nav structure to the right edge of the div. Currently, it is "popping out" of the div. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

You can fint it also in codepen
If you are looking to right align the popup menu .nav li ul to the container "trigger" menu element then you should simply add right: 0; to .nav li > ul
Like:
.nav li > ul {
position: absolute;
display: none;
border-bottom: 0;
right: 0;
z-index: 9999;
}

CSS Space Between Submenu Items

I am trying to lessen the vertical space between items in the submenu of my drop down navigation bar. You can see what it currently looks like at http://www.mirandabee.com
I am trying to reduce the space vertically, but can't figure it out.
Here is my HTML for it:
<ul id ="nav">
<li><a href="http://www.mirandabee.com/search/label/About%20Me#.UuQfD-Io6Rs">About Me
<ul>
<li>About Me</li>
<li>Photo Album</li>
</ul>
</a></li>

this.className+=" sfhover";
}
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\b"), "");
}
}
}
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);
#nav li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul {
left: auto;
}
Keep in mind that I am very much a beginner, but I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks so much!
Your HTML is totally broken. You have
<a><ul><li><a>...</a></li></ul></a>
you cannot have anchors inside anchors like that. Your css also doesn't make much sense. You've got position: absolute, but no position: relative anywhere else, so ALL of the nested <ul>'s are going to be in the wrong place.
Your HTML structure is bad. I'm sorry to say that. But here I try to fix it for you.

Styling a three-level unordered list

I have a 3-level deep, unordered list I'm styling to create a drop-down menu to extend this 2-level simple drop-down menu. The CSS is as follows:
#CHARSET "ISO-8859-1";
/* menu styles */
/* Top-level (Styles Works) */
#jsddm
{ margin: 0;
padding: 0}
#jsddm li
{ float: left;
list-style: none;
font: 12px Tahoma, Arial;}
#jsddm li a
{ display: block;
/*background: #324143; Old Style*/
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, rgba(238,238,238,1) 0%,rgba(204,204,204,1) 100%); /* Chrome10+,Safari5.1+ */;
padding: 5px 12px;
text-decoration: none;
border-right: 1px solid white;
width: 70px;
/*color: #EAFFED; Default color*/
color: #000099;
white-space: nowrap;}
#jsddm li a:hover
{ background: #24313C}
/* 2nd-level (Styles Works) */
#jsddm li ul
{ margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
visibility: visible;
border-top: 1px solid white}
#jsddm li ul li
{ float: none;
display: inline}
#jsddm li ul li a
{ width: auto;
background: #dfeffc;
color: #24313C}
#jsddm li ul li a:hover
{ background: #5c9ccc}
/* 3rd-level (Doesn't apply styles) */
#jsddm li ul li ul
{ margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
visibility: hidden;
border-top: 2px solid green}
The styling works for the first two levels, but not for the 3rd, I'm not sure if I have the syntax correct or if there's something else I'm missing. The html is as follows:
<div id="dropDownDiv">
<ul id="jsddm">
<li><a class="btn" href="#">Top Item 1</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a></li>
<li>2nd Level Item 2</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a class="btn" href="#">Top Item 2</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn hide" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a></li>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn hide" href="#">3rd Level Item 1</a></li>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">3rd Level Item 1</a></li>
</ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Any suggestions are appreciated.
UPDATE:
Thanks for loaning me your eyes Gareth. Corrected html:
<ul id="jsddm">
<li><a class="btn" href="#">Top Item 1</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a></li>
<li>2nd Level Item 2</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a class="btn" href="#">Top Item 2</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn hide" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="" class="btn hide" href="#">3rd Level Item 1</a></li>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">3rd Level Item 1</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a id="" class="btn" href="#">2nd Level Item 1</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Your third level ul is not contained within an li. That might be causing your problem.
