[RESOLVED] Problem with css - can't align the text

[akhileshbc]

Hi

I'm kind of making my own chat. And it's so far tested and working.
So, I tried to give a pleasing look by adding some CSS. I have made a photoshop design and I'm implementing it as CSS and HTML.

The problem is, when a chat message is displayed, I want to display the avatar, followed by the date and time and username + msg.
But I'm having trouble with the username+msg part, which should in a line below the date and time. I have attached a image. The first msg row is what my current css renders. And what I want to achieve is shown in the second row(the red text)

I hope I didn't confused you.

HTML:

<div id="chatwrapper">
                    <div class="chatbox">
                        <div class="avatar">
                            <img src="akhileshbc.png">
                        </div>
                        <span class="chat_date">
                            Oct 22, 2011 9:50 AM
                        </span>
                        
                        <span class="chat_msg">

                                        <!-- end of first chat row -->
