Shot in the dark here, but perhaps you could set your tab widths 
relative to viewport size (e.g. 20%), and use the server to "chop" your 
menu items into two lists when you have more than would fill 100%.  Your 
CSS would have something like
.moretabs{ margin: -50px}
(if your tab height was set rigidly for 50px), or perhaps you could 
server-script your CSS with PHP or similar to set your margins according 
to the number of rows.

I think it can be done, but is it worth the effort?
