Header element being hidden in IE8

I am working on www.doublegbobcat.com/preview and I have used a header element. Things are displaying as intended, except in IE8, where the header seems to be getting hidden on the z-index behind other content. How can I get the header element to display in IE8 the way it is in Chrome?

thx

The header element isn't showing up in IE8 developer tools, even though you've declared the new HTML 5 elements for IE lt 9

Instead, try including the HTML 5 "Shiv" script in your <head>

IE8 will not accept the HTML5 tag. You'll need to use conditional statements to replace it.
