A classic problem: due to IE's bugs, it displays the page incorrectly, but as required. It's only natural to blame the non-IE browsers in this kind of situation, but developing for one of those browsers first is a generally recommended approach. In this specific case, your problem is that the container #sidefod doesn't expand to contain its children (.split_right and .split_left) because they are floated. If you're ever curious as to WHY this behaviour is ingrained in CSS, check out [1]). There are various methods of clearing the floats, some of which involve extra (non-semantic) markup, some additional CSS. Try searching the web for "self-clearing floats" for example. One quick and easy solution is to add 'overflow: auto' to #sidefod, but please read up about some of the alternatives first, because there are various side-effects of each method, and you'll want to use the right one.
