<br> by virtue should break the line and what you observe while running in ie is correct. May be that firewatir is not treating it that way. [I have not explored firewatir to that extent to confirm this]
If you can tell us what exactly you are intend to do after getting the text then we can think of some workaround until we get clarity on the above. If you are comparing the string to arrive at some decision then for the time being try making it compare depending on whether it is ie or ff. Though this is not a clean way of doing the things.
