[ale] OT: Can MS IE Really Be This Broken?

I've attached a small bit of HTML that is a mock-up of the output of a
utility I'm trying to write.  I'm not at all a Web developer, but I
cribbed the HTML from one or more HTML guides I Googled.  

In Mozilla and in Konqueror, the two tables display exactly as I
intended and expected.  However, in IE, the second table appears to the
RIGHT of the first table, which seems to run counter to everything I
thought I understood about HTML table formatting.  

Unfortunately, the primary audience of the HTML generated by my utility
will be using IE by force (in other words, any invective I might
generate about the use of standards-abhorrent Web browsers will fall on
deaf ears).  So, does anyone have any idea how I can kluge this up so it
will render in IE more or less the way it renders elsewhere?
