I want to do the same, tried to do it myself, but no success
I also tried to use tip from inebriate, but I guess it's not applicable to my version of x-cart.
I know I should remove some of <table>, <tr> and <td> tags, so that the quantity box and add to cart button are in the same line, but couldn't figure out which ones.
Below is buy_now.tpl
Code:
