I did some testing on al old (Windows) machine with IE5.0

By deleting the very first style (where you set 5% and 15% margins on the
"p" element) the page displays normally.
If you need margins on them, you might try using pixels, rather than
percentages.  It may be that IE5 is having trouble working out what the
percentage relates to (5% of what?) and/or is adding them all together,
coming up with a page that's got a width of 600% of the browser window.

Using pixels appeared to work OK.
