how can I prevent the text from wrapping around the checkbox? I need to align the text after the checkbox, and not under it. I know I'm not the first person to ask, but I cant seem to find a solution.

.sign-newsletter {
padding:40px;
width:200px;
}
form li {display:inline;}
fieldset {border:0;}
.checkbox {
width: 13px;
height: 13px;
padding: 0;
margin:0 10px 0 0;
vertical-align: bottom;
position: relative;
top: -2px;
*overflow: hidden;
}
input {background:#636566; padding:7px;
width:100%;
margin-bottom:5px;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box; /* Safari/Chrome, other WebKit */
-moz-box-sizing: border-box; /* Firefox, other Gecko */
box-sizing: border-box; /* Opera/IE 8+ */
}
<div class="sign-newsletter">
<form method="post" action="submit-sign-newsletter.php">
<fieldset>
<ul>
<li><input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name" /></li>
<li><input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email" /></li>
<li><input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" name="sign_me_in" value="" /><label>"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur </label></li>
<li><input type="submit" value="Submit" class="button" /></li>
</ul>
</fieldset>
</form>
</div>
Click the Display tab. Select or clear the Wrap text check box.
The fastest way is to select the cell(s) and click the Wrap Text button (Home tab > Alignment group) to toggle text wrapping off. Alternatively, press the Ctrl + 1 shortcut to open the Format Cells dialog and clear the Wrap text checkbox on the Alignment tab.
To prevent the text from wrapping, you can use the CSS white-space property with the “nowrap” or “pre” value.
Word Wrapping Use the entity for the non-breaking space character, when you want to make sure that a line isn't broken! Alternatively, use the NOWRAP attribute to disable word wrapping and the <BR> element to force line breaks where desired. Netscape includes two tags: <NOBR>... </NOBR>, and <WBR>.
Try changing:
HTML
<li>
<div class="chkLabel">
<input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" name="sign_me_in" value="" />
<label>"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur</label>
</div>
</li>
CSS
.chkLabel input { float: left; margin-top:0.5em;}
.chkLabel label { display: block; margin-left: 1.5em;}
