Onclick & Ie - The not so new standards problem

DoR
I want to do some action when I click on a paragraph (for example).
Here is the code:
CODE

...
<script>
function refresh_data(){
alert ('test');
}
</script>

<p onClick='refresh_data();'>Refresh</p>

...

This works perfect on Firefox and on IE 6.0 and greater.
The fact is, it doesn't work on IE 5.0. What should I do? Re-design everything to allow all kind of browsers (including those not so old and much used like IE5.0) or recommend users to upgrade their borwsers?.

On an Intranet service I can limit the design to some browsers but when it is a commercial and public application, I can't be loosing clients!!.

What do you say?
Is so difficult to use standars?
What's your experience?

Here is an interesting discussion.

Its not your fault...
That's the reason why Microsoft released IE 6.0
IE 5 is not compatible to that code...
Anyway, IE 5 I don't think there's much people using it already...
So the problem issn't big..
