Hello rleahong,
It sounds like you are trying to use align to position div elements into a two column layout. That's not going to work very well. We typically use floats to put elements beside each other... see a float tutorial here.

Here is an example of a simple 2 column layout that may help.

And VIP is right, we need all the information (both CSS and Markup) to be able to answer your question.
