Text Alignment is pretty simple. But two separate text alignments for one line? I'm stumped.

Lets say I have a DIV content box.
I write something. I make it left aligned. Then I want a space between the text and other text that i want right aligned.
Hmm, like this:

[Favorite Color:_______________________________________Green]
For the sake of confusion, the brackets are the DIV Border.
And the underscores are the "space" between.


I tried a P alignment. But that dropped the text down a line.
and i spent about 10 minutes figuring out how many nbsp i could fit in... didn't work.



Heres a pic:

its the text that is split down the middle.




Thank You.

Here is how you use CSS Float
This wasn't tested.
CSS
CODE
    #container {
        width: 300px;
        overflow: hidden;
}

    #left {
        text-align: left;
        float: left;
        width: 100px;
}

    #right {
        text-align: right;
        float: right;
        width: 150px;
}


HTML
CODE
<div id="container" >
    <div id="left" >
        Left Content Goes Here
    </div>
    <div id="right" >
        Right Content Goes Here
    </div>
</div>


Thank you Mike for the post below me. I fixed it.
