   text1
   <span id="2"> text 2</span>
</span>

But somehow text 2 is being desplayed on new line , may be it is styles sheet issue but i cant chnage style sheet due to some other resons.How can i overide default style sheet and make text 2 to be displayed on same line as text1

<span style="display:inline;">

try <span id="2" style="display:inline;">

If they are not displaying one next to the other, then some of your CSS is setting its display: block (or similar) and not display: inline.

Easy fix - inspect the CSS setting it and remove, or explicitly state display: inline on that element.

Also, valid id (and name for that matter) attributes must start with a [a-zA-Z].

It is likely the stylesheet has set spans to display:block which causes them to take their own line, such as the default styling for a div. To fix this you can add a style attribute:

<span id="1">
   text1
   <span id="2" style="display:inline"> text 2</span>
</span>

However, this may still be overridden by the stylesheet if it is using the !important flag.

For future debugging I recommend you look at tools like Web Inspector (Safari and Chrome), Firebug (Firefox) and Dragonfly (Opera). One final note, you can't have an id attribute that begins with a number, it must start with a letter.

Try using the following: display:inline.
