</div>

I’m trying to have in the same line a \<p\> with align left and other with align right:  
p {  
display: inline;  
text-align:left;  
}

p.final {  
display: inline;  
text-align:right;  
}

but it isn’t working, maybe because the div in which that \<p\> are have:  
margin-right:auto;  
margin-left:auto;

???
