[thelist] <div> vs <li> for Pull-Down Menus & Opera

Using CSS, I've coded 2 pages for pull down menus -- one using <div> tags
(http://www.kingestate.com/newdesign/Domaine/Estate/Gardens.htm)and the
other using <li> (http://www.kingestate.com/newdesign/example.htm - which is
one you guys recently tested)

Using www.browsercam.com/ it seems the page using <div> shows up correctly
in Opera -- while the <li> doesn't (the mouseovers don't work and the subnav
shows up below the navigation, or doesn't show up at all).  

Is Opera such a minor player problems like this can be ignored?  And if not,
why are most pull-down menus coded using <li> instead of <div>?  Are there
problems using <div>'s like this?
