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.
