Custom Navigation Bar breaks apart in Chrome. - css

Question

I am just cleaning up some CSS for a client.
I am not a front-end person, but have been saved by bootstrap (thank you, twitter).
However, I am having a really hard time cleaning up a custom navigation panel
(no twitter). I have provided the CSS below. I need it to be able to:
1) close gracefully at the end (the beginning starts with a vertical border, not an arrow.
I would like the end to have symmetry and close the way it began).
2) Get the container to not expand to the end of the page.
3) I can't seem to get it to work in chrome. It falls apart in chrome but works in IE and Ff.
Here is the link. Any advice? Thanks so much.

Add a background color to #wizHeader to create the visual of a right-side border.
Specify a width value in #wizHeader to prevent it from expanding to the right of the page.
It seems to be working fine on Chrome for me (latest version)
Here are some examples of declarations to add to #wizHeader (add these to the ones currently in the CSS declaration)
#wizHeader {
background: #6699CC;
width: 960px;
}
Adding more based on comment...
The reason the arrows are being bumped down is because the 's are block elements, floated left, so they'll flow to fit whatever width they have available and drop down onto the next line when they run out.
If you want to cut off the last arrow, you'll have better luck by targeting the that wraps the last . This worked for me, editing in Chrome's Inspector:
#wizHeader li:last-child {
width: 172px; /* you might have to tweak this a bit*/
overflow: hidden;
padding-right: 0;
}
Then, change the width of the #wizHeader accordingly. 930px wide seemed to do the trick with the above snippet.
