I have the desired effect on firefox, which is to display like this:

   _________
  | title   |__________________
  |                            | 
  |                            |  
  |                            |
  |  content here              |
  |                            |
  |                            |
  |                            |
  |                            |
   ____________________________

but it simply displays a deformed rectangle in IE

What could be the possible issues?

EDIT:

This is the border of a webpage. The title is on the smaller box on top of the bigger one.

Here is the link to the webpage: http://picasso.shsu.edu/~kkk005/index.php?view=ArtworkCommentary&OPPID=OPP.34:019

This does not display properly on IE
