<div class="container"><span class="field_label">Job</span><input class="fields2" type="text" maxlength="200" name="first_name" /></div>
    <div class="container"><span class="field_label">Date</span><input class="fields2" type="text" maxlength="200" name="the_date" id="the_date" /></div>
    <div class="container" id="sched_text">sdfdsfdsf</div> <!-- schedule text-->
    <div class="container"><span class="field_label">Time</span>


.container{
position:relative;
display:block;
float:right;
border: 1px solid;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}

my html/css here has my containers aligning right below each other. However, when I use .html in jquery to change or add text to sched_text it throws the css off and places the div tag not as a block anymore but placed somewhere to the side.

Does something change when you use .html text? what would the proper way of doing it? Thanks

Ok the issue is that my .html or .text is not a string. I just did .text(the_Week[i][1]); which results in a number. How do I present it as a string?
