Regexp to enclose text with P-tag

I'm looking for help writing a regexp to enclose text with a <p> tag.
The rule is that other HTML tags in the text like <img> and other
block elements should NOT be enclosed by <p>.
example:

lorem ipsum <img src="image.gif" />dolor

should become:

<p>lorem ipsum</p><img src="image.gif" /><p>dolor</p>

Can anyone help me with this? :)

As far as I can see, there's no way to do this using Regexps... What you'd
better do is parse the HTML using sgmllib, and on continuous data sections
just output <p> <yourdata> </p>, and output each start/stop tag as it was in
the sources.

HTH!

Heiko.
