XHTML/CSS Site .. Content missing in Explorer (PC)

[Sikwondo]

I am working on a site at the moment and have it uploaded to my webspace for testing purposes but have come accross a slight problem.

The site appears as it should in (Mac) Firefox, Safari and nearly perfect in Explorer 5.2.

On PC Firefox it is fine, PC Netscape is a little off, but the main issue is with PC Internet Explorer, 50% of the site content just isn't there!!! Also the side bar appears miles to the right!

Can anyone help me?

The site link is www.simonbailey.co.uk/indexpd.html

Thank you,

Si

Will look better in Windows if:

#news-one {
left:0;
}
#news-two {
left:395px;
margin-left:0;
}
#sideContainer {
float:none;
}

Why use margins if your using absolute positioning?

I am very new to development so everything is a learning experience for me. Does this solve the content not being shown in Explorer problem?

I will have a fiddle and see!

Thanks, Si

*EDIT* I entered the code as you said and it made the footer drop a few hundred pixels down the page!! but solves some of the problems (you star!). The news-two item appears, as does the sidebar container in correct position. Now just the footer, and the news-one item!!!

Could you tell me why the float left was affecting the sidebar, as I thought it needed to float: left; tin order to appear inline instead of dropping below the rest of the content.

Getting there ... just need the index page: Welcome text to align in the left box, and on the missing & news page, the content to appear in the right area.

The problem is from using margins and position absolute.
Remove margin-top: 550px; from #footer
margin-left: 400px; from #navigationHolder, add left:250px; here to align the menu.
Change this:

.copyright {
font-size: 9px;
font-family: Lucida Grande, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #C0C0C0;
float:right;
margin-top:-10px;
}
