IE sometimes will push an element below the floated one due to width or something. I don't have my laptop with me so my trouble shooting atm is a bit limited on this box I am on.

Also there is an extra period in

#templateleft {
float:left;
width:197.px;
}

should be

#templateleft {
width:197px;
}

Attached is a screenshot with your layout structure dont know if it will help or not.
