Compass Inline-Block List

Easy mode using simple descendant li selectors:

ul.nav
  +inline-block-list

Advanced mode: If you need to target the list items using a different selector then use +inline-block-list-container on your ul/ol and +inline-block-list-item on your li. This may help when working on layouts involving nested lists. For example:

ul.nav
  +inline-block-list-container
  > li
    +inline-block-list-item
