getting dt and dds on the same line

[fwordboy]

this is what i dream of

Data Term - Data Definition
Data Term - Data Definition
Data Term - Data Definition

etc

is it possible?
i've tried to make them inline
but just get

Data Term - Data DefinitionData Term - Data DefinitionData Term - Data DefinitionData Term - Data Definition

which is crap.

has anyone been able to do this i imagine it is relatively simply with selectors but IE won't doesn't agree with that sort of attitude.

How about floating both dt and dd left, but give the dt an additional clear:left

[grahamstewart]

You don't even need to go that far. Just add

float:left

to the <dt>.

Note: you may also want to increase the left margin on the <dd>, default is around 40px, so make it larger if your <dt>s are long words.
