Greetings.  I'm trying to copy a profile form into a drupal node.  I've copied the HTML snippet from the profile, but when I view the node, the asterisk for required fields appears below the field label, on a new line.  When I look at it with Firebug, there's a mysterious <br /> after the text "First Name" from the label cell (see snippet below).

CODE FROM PROFILE SNIPPET
<table class="form-layout-compressed"><tr id="editrow-first_name"><td class="label"><label for="first_name">  First Name
   <span class="marker" title="This field is required.">*</span>
</label></td><td class="edit-value"><input maxlength="64" size="30" name="first_name" type="text" id="first_name" class="form-text big required" /></td></tr>
CODE AS DISPLAYED IN NODE
<table class="form-layout-compressed">
<tbody>
<tr id="editrow-first_name">
<td>
First Name
<br/>
<span class="required_field" title="This field is required.">*</span>
</td>
<td class="edit-value">
<input id="first_name" class="form-text big required" type="text" name="first_name" size="30" maxlength="64"/>
</td>
</tr>
How can I get rid of the line break?  It makes my form look odd 

Not sure if you figured this out, but I had the same problem today.

I figured out that the html code that you paste in has extra spaces/breaks in it.  All you need to do is erase all of the spaces before this:
<span class="marker" title="This field is required.">*</span>
