Client with multi-word menus

I have been successfully using CSS Menu Writer for over a year now with great results. I have never had a problem I could not work through.

Until now.

I have a client who wants the greater part of a sentence on a menu item and I need to enlarge the menu space so that the website will actually sit below it.

You can see an example of this here: test.html

I am not sure that CSS Menu Writer was really designed to have multiline text on it as, when both Firefox and Safari render the result, the words run off the menu spaces.

Is there a way I can please this client with CSS Menu Writer with both the main and the drop down menu items?

you can add an inline width on the longer a tags to make those menu items fit the text, for example:
<a href="retailers.html" class="link" style="width: 200px;">What we do for retail companies</a>
