If IE was displaying it all then it was sent with an html rather than
XML mime type, which tells the receiving client that it is not XML and
that it is HTML.

As such, syntax such as <br/> is a syntax error that only works 
to produce a line break due to the lax error reporting of the html
client.

If you want something treated as XML, send it with an xml mime type
(of course IE doesn't render XML without an XSL stylesheet, but that's
OK, this is xsl-list after all...
