Answer 1

Try like this: Demo

CSS:

.fl{ float:left; }
.fr{ float:right; }
.label{ clear:both; }

HTML:

<div class="label" date1="10/5/2016" date2="10/20/2016" id="mydiv">
    <span class="fl">Start Date 10/5/2016</span> 
    <span class="fr">End Date 10/20/2016</span>
</div>

Answer 2

Make it simple with flexbox and pseudo elements .

 #mydiv { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; } #mydiv::before { content: "Start Date: " attr(date1); } #mydiv::after { content: "End Date: " attr(date2); } 

 <div class="label" date1="10/5/2016" date2="10/20/2016" id="mydiv"></div> 

So, your code will be like this:

str+="<div class='label' date1='"+a+"' date2='"+a1+"' id='mydiv'></div>";

Answer 5

try this codepen codepen ..

I wrapped two dates in two spans and used display: inline-block; to the span elements to align inline with width and for the first element i used text-align: left; to start from left and for the second element used text-align: right; to start from right.

Note: I given max-width: 800px; to the parent element but you can give your width or you can remove.

Answer 6

You can put the both dates in span or p tag and make one element float to left and other to right.

UPDATED as per your code

 $str .="<div class='label' date1='".a."' date2='".a1."' id='mydiv'><span style='float:left'> Start Date ". a.'</span>';
$str.="<span style='float:right'>End Date ".a1.'</span>';

Answer 7

use float:left and float:right for dates.

 .label { width: 100%; height: auto; max-width: 800px; } .date-1 { width: 50%; text-align: left; float:left } .date-2 { width: 50%; text-align: right; float:right; } 

 <div class="label" date1="10/5/2016" date2="10/20/2016" id="mydiv"><span class="date-1">Start Date 10/5/2016</span><span class="date-2">End Date 10/20/2016</span></div>
