IE display question

I am seeing something that I would like to understand.

I created a page using firefox as my initial viewer. It has a right
floated
div with inner divs then a left floated div. I checked it out with
opera and
the pc version of safari and it looked the same. When I checked it
out
with IE the left floated div was below the right float. In the code I
changed
position of the left floated div to be defined first and the page
displayed the
way I wanted. I made no other change but moved the div up in the
file. The
other browsers display the two pages the same.

What is happening?
