Custom field (customer input) problem

I have custom fields created using the plugin allowing users to enter custom text to be associated with a product (in this case youth sports registrations). The custom field labels all appear one after the other and then the input data. I was able to use CSS to have each appear on a new line by using Float: left but I need this to have the data appear right after the label with a line break after each.

Currently, it looks like the attached in the cart and even worse (no line breaks using float) in the order info. Which makes this difficult to sort through when adding participants to teams

I am using Joomla 2.5.4 and VM 2.0.6

Any  help would be VERY greatly appreciated so i can finish up this website

Product custom fields Plugin Customer Text Input

The Custom Field Plugin "Customer Text Input" is the same as "Custom Attributes" in VM1.

This plugin allows customers to specify their own value, like for asking for the name to engrave a product.

How to do it?
1. Go in Products > Custom Fields, and click on the "New" button
2. As Custom Field Type, select "Plugin"
3. At the bottom of the page, the list of available plugins are displayed. Choose "Customer Text Input"
4. The fields available for this plugin are displayed. Fill the Name, size of the text input, and select Yes or No for the price per letter.
5. Set the parameter "Cart Attribute" to "Yes" , so the input given by the customer will be added in the cart.
6. Go in the Products > Products, and click on the product you whish to add this custom field
7. Go on the Custom Field tab, and in the Custom Field Type area, select the custom Field you just created. The custom field is automatically added; Fill in the value.
8. Save your product
