Actually, the most pertinent CSS you have is mixed in with the markup:
<img src="../img/soccergame.jpg" width="400" alt="" style="float:
right; margin: 0 0 4px 4px" />
Note that there is no width on the float. Mac IE is the only browser
that, by default, gives widthless floats 100% width, in slavish
adherence to the mostly-superceded 2.0 version of the spec. That
means there is no room for the image to be "to the right" of inline
content. To make IE happy, you will need to declare a width on the float.
