Take a look at the js, it's pretty simple. 
However, it is true that you are leaving yourself open. At Yahoo, we treat IE6 
as an a-level browser. http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/articles/gbs/
So you aren't going to see me push to change Yahoo! Finance to HTML5 tags. 
However, I have been doing it to smaller projects and am about to convert a 
client's site to html5 structure. 

You need to build a site to learn HTML5 semantics, it's like the old days of 
hybrid table-based layouts. 7 years ago you really needed to ditch tables to 
truly understand CSS. 

If you are worried about a client, than do it on your personal site or for a 
more progressive client.

This is great. THanks. One other thing that's making me shy from the
edge. A production (client site) site that relies on JS to render
makes me sweat a little. Can anyone convince me that it's ok?
