Perhaps the *correct* thing to do here is create a template **but** a workaround I found useful was to over-ride the `inline` nature of the `span` element, as follows + .align_right { display: block ; text-align: right ; } +> you may also like to remove the padding and margins since they will be provided by the enclosing block.
