Hi everybody,

My first post...I can't find any answer in previous posts, so thanks in advance for any help!

First of all, to visualize the problem:

As you can see, I have two Div, one floating left (sidebar) and the other floating right.
In the sidebar menu, I have one list item with too long content that over flow (Assistenti, Dottorandi e Specializzandi). I'd like to wrap text, in order to display it in two lines, but keeping the formatting, with the height of the li#navitem auto adjusting with its content.

Is it possible? I've tried overflow, but I don't want a scroll bar, it isn't what I'm looking for.
Hope all is clear...Thanks!

The CSS code:

body {
	font: 70% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	margin: 30px 5px 30px 5px;
	text-align: center;
	background:#FFFFFF;
	color: #191919;
}
 
a:link, a:visited {
	color: #004080;
	text-decoration: none;
}
 
a:hover, a:active {
	color: #63727c;
	text-decoration: underline;
}
 
#container {
