Main nav full width and auto padding

[kerremans 0]

Hi, I have removed the search box from my main nav but the menu does not always spread out over the full width. Is there any way to do this with the padding adjusting itself? I have added this css: .main-nav a{padding-left:40px !important;padding-right:40px !important;} This works okay but not on all browsers and when I add a menu item I have to change the parameters again. Isn't there a way I can make the menu 100% so it changes the padding itself? My site is ontneming.nu.

No, you can't make child elements calculate their own width to make their parent a certain size in CSS. You will have to adjust manually.

Actually, Kastelic is correct. You cannot achieve that goal as you describe it.
