DocType switching for IE only came in with IE 6.  IE5.0 does horrible, 
horrible things with CSS (but then it's about 9 years old I think) - I 
had to use it on an intranet for a few years.  It also doesn't support 
any inline styling (no borders under text; no margin, padding, a:hovers 
on lists displayed inline, for example). I don't have an IE5 to hand, 
but it will require some hackery.
