2612	Fix admin formatting when help_text used with multiple fields on the same line	Andy Dustman <farcepest@…>	xian	"If you have a case where you have set multiple fields to appear on the same line in the admin interface, the current version produces a line break when help_text is present, due to it being in a <p> element. To fix it in a half-assed sort of way, I wrapped the entire field in a <div style=""float: left"">. The diff is should below:

 </div>

Ultimately you want a class which does this, which means changing the admin stylesheet, so you probably don't want to use this patch exactly.

The patch does not appear to affect the default case of stacked fields, as the the field line itself is wrapped in another <div>."	defect	closed	contrib.admin	dev	minor	fixed	nfa-someday	farcepest@… andy@…	Accepted	1	0	1	1	0	0
