Menu wont display horizontaly outwith chrome

Hi Guys,

I done the course on here to build a wordpress theme and all seems to be coming along nicely except the menu. I want a horizontal menu it works fine in chrome although IE 11 and firefox 24 it displays vertically how can I rectify this?

I have added the HTML5shiv, although it cant be this as the browsers have HTML 5 support. The site is not finished yet and I know there are changes/improvements needed.

Cheers in advanced for any help.

I have added an extract of code to codepen regarding the navigation bar, hope this helps.

After loads off messing about, I needed to amend the CSS to show as below. I understand its all about learning although it does get frustrating when you search for the answers and you cannot find them. Hopefully this will help someone in future as the code provided on the video does not work outwith Safari and Chrome.

nav {

padding: 2% 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid #e6e6e6;
border-top: 1px solid #e6e6e6;  
margin: 2% 0 2% 0;
}

nav a { font-family: 'GoudyRegular'; display:block;

text-align:center;
font-size: 1.25;
color: #36cc66;
display: inline;
margin: 0% 2% 0% 2%;
}

Maybe if you showed us your code in codepen or here we could help you more precisely!
