Single menu background not full width

Hi. I'm remaking an website I built with Atahualpa about 4 years ago and trying to make use of some of the responsive mods suggested on this forum since then. I'm having trouble with the menu background.

I'm trying to set a background which spans all the menu items but doesn't span the full width of the site.

If I target the CSS at div#menu1 ul.rMenu li I get an individual background for each menu item (which doesn't look right because my design uses an inset box shadow around the menu as a whole, not the individual menu items).

Instead, I've used div#menu1 ul.rMenu, but it spans the full width of the layout, unless I set a limiting width value (which causes problems on mobile devices, if fall back fonts are a different size, etc.)

Current CSS:

Code:

div#menu1 ul.rMenu {
	background-color: rgba(135, 135, 135, 0.25) !important;
	-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 50px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25) inset;
	-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 50px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25) inset;
	box-shadow: 0 0 50px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25) inset;
	-moz-border-radius: 4px; 
	-khtml-border-radius: 4px; 
	-webkit-border-radius: 4px; 
	border-radius: 4px;
	width: 385px;
	height: 40px;
	margin-top: -6px;
	padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
	border: solid 1px transparent !important;
}

Is there any way using CSS that I can treat the styling of all menu items as one unit?

Thanks, Paul
