My CSS does not validate at

Attempting to validate, for example, my
http://www.math.ufl.edu/~squash/cou...vcal.2008t.html
produces (lightly edited)

Property -moz-border-radius doesn't exist : 20pt

Running firefox on MacOS, it appears that
"-moz-border-radius" does indeed cause the borders to be
pleasantly rounded.
Q1: Is there a way I can change my code, and still have the
rounded borders (in browsers that support it) AND have the
CSS validate? (E.g, should I be using a different DOCTYPE
or a different validation service, or can the above
validator take an "allow moz" parameter somehow?)
Q2: As for the "pseudo-element ... can't appear here"
errors, my CSS is [reduced for posting]
::-moz-selection {background: #AF0078 }
::selection {background: #AF0078 }
code::-moz-selection { background: #333333 }
code::selection { background: #333333 }
Are any of these considered correct for mozilla-derived
browsers --and how can I get such to validate?
