Just to clarify -- not all browsers will use IE 5's box model when in 
Quirks Mode, just IE 6 will.  Other browsers may make rendering changes 
while they are in Quirks Mode, but these changes don't include a switch 
to IE 5's box model.

I'm sure you meant that, Jim, but I wanted to clarify for others.
