I have a vertical navbar. Now, this navbar is supposed to have drop down menus. The only problem for me is, I am unable to make it so that the drop down menus are to the side of the menu. I have the HTML and CSS
code on jsFiddle here:

CSS:
#wrap {
width: 150px;
height: 50px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
margin: 0; /* Ensures there is no space between sides of the screen and the menu */
z-index: 1; /* Makes sure that your menu remains on top of other page elements */

background-color: RoyalBlue;
}
.navbar {
height: 50px;

padding-bottom: 10px;
margin: 0;

border-right: 1px solid #54879d;
z-index: 12;
}
.navbar li {
padding-bottom: 10px;
height: auto;

font: normal bold 12px/1.2em Arial, Verdana, Helvetica;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: RoyalBlue;
}
.navbar a {
padding: 18px 0; /* Adds a padding on the top and bottom so the text appears centered vertically */
border-left: 1px solid #0026ff; /* Creates a border in a slightly lighter shade of blue than the background. Combined with the right border, this creates a nice effect. */
border-right: 1px solid #0026ff; /* Creates a border in a slightly darker shade of blue than the background. Combined with the left border, this creates a nice effect. */
text-decoration: none; /* Removes the default hyperlink styling. */
color: #000; /* Text color is black */
display: block;
}
.navbar li:hover, a:hover {
background-color: rgba(4, 6, 0, 0.00);
}
.navbar li ul {
display: none; /* Hides the drop-down menu */
height: auto;
margin: 0; /* Aligns drop-down box underneath the menu item */
padding: 0; /* Aligns drop-down box underneath the menu item */
}
.navbar li:hover ul {
display: block; /* Displays the drop-down box when the menu item is hovered over */
z-index: 12;
padding-left: 1px;
}
.navbar li ul li {

.navbar li ul li a {
