Hello, I'm using the Basic template in LimeSurvey 2.00. I've edited the question.pstpl and here is what I think is the relevant part:
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="8" border="0">
					<tr>
						<td class="be">
                                                  <span class="asterisk">{QUESTION_MANDATORY}</span><br />{QUESTION_TEXT}<br /><span class="questionhelp">{QUESTION_HELP}</span>
 
							{QUESTION_MAN_MESSAGE}
							{QUESTION_VALID_MESSAGE}
							{QUESTION_FILE_VALID_MESSAGE}
						</td>
					</tr>
        	        <!--<tr><td><font size="-1"><i>{QUESTIONHELPPLAINTEXT}</i></font></td></tr>-->
					<tr>
						<td width="100%" class="answer">{ANSWER}</td>
					</tr>
	                <tr>
						<td class="survey-question-help">{QUESTIONHELP}</td>
					</tr>
				</table>



The problem is that there is a line/paragraph break between the mandatory asterisk and the question text. Screenshot attached. I also looked in template.css but nothing seems to stand out.

Any help? Thanks much.

Che

This is also the case for me, I would suspect its the phpeditor and the browser. Some browsers don't add it, firefox will if you save the question text directly in the regular phpUI.
If you are in the source and save it doesn't add the paragraph tag <p>

I don't see any <p> tags in your script but I do see a line break after the .asterisk span.

Try changing this:
<span class="asterisk">{QUESTION_MANDATORY}</span><br />{QUESTION_TEXT}<br /><span class="questionhelp">{QUESTION_HELP}</span>

T this:
<span class="asterisk">{QUESTION_MANDATORY}</span>$nbsp{QUESTION_TEXT}<br /><span class="questionhelp">{QUESTION_HELP}</span>
Cheers,
Tony

@lowprofile -- thank you. It adds an extra step, but using the source works for me.

@tpartner -- thanks as well, but making that change didn't affect anything.

Thanks,
Che
