Missing sidebar widgets in IE7 and IE8

link?

theme?

post pasted from ms word?

is the footer ok?

Okay, I should also clarify that I am pretty much brand new to this. So I don’t really know how this works. Not only are the sidebar items not there but you can’t get to older posts so I guess the footer isn’t okay. I did past some stuff from MS Word…is that the problem? Here’s the blog in question: https://www.sradirectinstruction.com/blog/

pasting directly from ms word is a problem particular for the InternetExplorer.

you need to work through all the posts with ‘word’ content and remove the ‘word’ formatting.

I edited all of the posts I had originally copied and pasted from Word and did “Paste from Word” but that didn’t change anything. I then tried editing one of them and inserting the content as “Paste as Plain Text” but that too didn’t work. When I click “Preview” on all of these, the preview looks fine but when I go to the blog’s homepage, it still looks horrible. (Background is all blue, side bar widgets are gone, can’t access older posts, etc.) Thoughts?

there is at least one more pasted from Word; (from the html in the browser)

– this is exactly where the disply breaks in my IE7.
