Hi Bjoern,

I described my problem wrong. In one instance I use three div's to achieve 
the onion skin layers like: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/onionskin/. 
Lots of discussion going on there about this extra markup. There seems to no 
easy way to achieve this effect without the div's. I had some help from 
someone and after further investifation it turned out the config option 
"clean: 1" was the one that combined my div's into one. ("This option 
specifies if Tidy should strip out surplus presentational tags and 
attributes replacing them by style rules and structural markup as 
appropriate. It works well on the HTML saved by Microsoft Office products.")

After switching that off everything was ok!
