Is it completely unfeasible to install Firefox 1.5 on those PCs (I wonder what hardware these are O.o)? It should work on Win95. Or event a linux distro if it's all browser+docs being done, might be cheaper than taking the time to redo it all without jQuery.
Else, first thing to do is get a VM like VirtualBox and get a proper IE5.5 on Win95 install running, debugging on the standalone version will be a nightmare.
