According to the HTML4 DTD, the </P> tag is optional. Therefore P's autoclose. This simple test when loaded up in a current build demonstrates the problem (dump the content model after loading): --CUT-- <HTML> <HEAD> <STYLE> #pm { margin: 4px; border: solid teal 2px; } </STYLE> <SCRIPT SRC="DumpTreeIE.js"> </SCRIPT> </HEAD> <BODY onLoad="dumpTree();"> <P> <P> <P> This is some text. It better be at the top of the page. <P> <P> This text should be one lines worth below the previous text. <P ID=pm> <P ID=pm> <P ID=pm> This is some text. It better be at the top of the page. <P ID=pm> This text should be below the previous text. </BODY> </HTML> --CUT--

Assuming that the statement in paragraph #4 "This is some text. It better be at the top of the page" does not mean that this sentence really should appear at the top of the page above the others, I am verifying this bug fixed.
