Small question about text alignment in tables.

    I want to have a TD with text on either end of the TD. Every time I attempted to align part of the text on the right side of the TD it skips a line. Does anyone know how to align it so it stays on the same row but seperates?

    <div style="float:left">Left TD</div><div style="float:right">Right TD</div>

    That works for me, will stay in the same line.

    To build on Colleen's answer a bit, you can quickly and easily specify the spacing between your two pseudo-columns by adding onto those styles like so: <div style="float:left ; width:48%">Left TD</div><div style="float:rightt ; width:48%">Right TD</div>. Now, you'll have a 4% margin between your two floated divs (adjust as needed, of course).

    Thanks Paul, that's even better. I never thought to add widths, I ended up using margins when I wanted more space.
