There are features that changed and things that got removed. You should test carefully on SQL 2008 before upgrading.
Be aware once you attach a SQL 2005 DB to SQL 2008 it becomes a 2008 database and cannot be downgraded (vial backup/restore or detach/attach) again.

or you can open the SQL Server 2005 instances from the SQL server 2008 management studio. In this you will be working as if in SQL server 2005.
