Trying to parse the text and put <p>'s around it will lead to exactly
the problem Josh is compalining about with the <br>'s unfortunately.

The differences between IE5 and IE6 are minimal compared to IE4. The
vast majority of sites are likely to work perfectly well in 5. It's also
worth remembering that for a long time Microsoft didn't release IE6 as a
standalone upgrade for Win2K, and didn't exactly shout about it when
they did, so there might still be quite a few Win2K users still unaware
that they can run something newer.
