I want the first part of a single line of text to align left and the second part of a single line of text to align right. I know how to do it by spliting the cell into 2 cells or embedding a table within the cell. I wonder if there is an easier way.

if i wrap the second part of the text with div tags and use align=right I get sort of the right effect except that the parser automatically adds a break. I tried span but it doesnt work at all.

for example:

You can use style="float:right" and style="float:left" instead, which should give the same effect.  Monchoman45  Talk  Contribs  Skystone  17:56,7/31/2011
