Two elements on same line - 7/17/2008 11:58:26
One thing I'm having a hard time with in CSS is the positioning rules. For instance, I've got two named elements at the top of my page one right under the other and then an "<hr>" under those. I want to put them both right above the line with one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. I've played around with both relative and absolute positioning without much luck. Do I need to figure in percentages here?
