HTML 5 issue? - GoFuckYourself.com

The above site has been written in HTML 5, but the layout collapses in Firefox and Opera. Please view it in Chrome or Safari first, then view it in Firefox or Opera to see what I mean.

Is there a code fix, or do I need to back-code it to HTML4?

Help,
Shawn

For anyone who read this and follows up (though I doubt it - the problem wasn't what I thought, and a bit obscure), I thought I'd post an update.

My tags were all collapsing and crashing into one-another, not because of HTML5 and Firefox, but rather the deprecated tags in HTML5. The problem was the "<hr>" tags. They've become a different function in HTML5, and need to dealt with using very specific CSS to make them a horizontal rule. Now, they're used to divide content in some way. Weird. The solution was to delete all the horizontal rules using an "<hr>" tag, and replace them with a div tag using a background image to create the keyline. Once I did that, the pages went haywire again, but with a few hours of combing through all the CSS all over again to fix some other little things, it started to sort out.

FYI.
