Ive been working on a mega drop down menu that I roughly learned how to do on sitepoint.com and have been able to customize it to my liking for the most part with what I taught myself about CSS styling. But I have not been able to figure out how to align my links in the mega drop down menu under one another instead of listing them right after one another like a paragraph. Now I originally changed my code from the demo so that instead of a paragraph the links were a unordered list. So im thinking that this can be solved with CSS. Ive attached my code below if anybody has an idea of whats going on.

I currently have a

tag within the code so that I could specifically select those sections and modify them to align to the left... but I can't manage it to do anything.
