[SOLVED] <a> links on same line with 'floating' (not &nbsp; ) space between ?

[akm]

Trying to put a couple text/object links on page at opposite sides of the page and on the same line (per code below).

&nbsp; sort-of works, but wraps text/objects prematurely when page window is made smaller.

Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22

<div> <style="float: left; text-align: left;"> <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"> <img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title=""> {$lang->toplinks_search} </a> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <style="float: right; text-align: left;"> <a href="http://www.forum.info/index.htm"> <font size="4;" color="#0066CC"> Go to Location (click here)</font> </a> </div>

Tried looking at places like http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ etc, but seems like there is not a good spacer tag that does what need.

Suggestions on place/s to look ?

Also, any other comments on way trying (ie code crudeness) to do it would be appreciated.

Ps: Sorry for all the beginner mod questions. If not wanted, please let know better place to post.
