My real question, must I now add after the tag?
Everything you need to know is at http://html5boilerplate.com/
Remember to add
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
To your head to ensure that IE can style these elements.

I'm trying to create a responsive layout in bootstrap that has a full-height sidebar. I got the responsive part working, but the only problem is - the spacing of the spans don't seem to be playing well together.
On the right side - the main content - it doesn't span to fit the rest of the screen. Also, when the browser gets too small - the main content actually gets partially hidden by the sidebar.
Am I doing something wrong with the spans? If I remove the position: absolute; from the .sidebar, then the whole .content. piece slides underneath the sidebar - but the sidebar is no longer full height, and the content still doesn't fill the rest of the screen evenly. It seems as it's impossible to get this working correctly, but I want to use bootstrap for the convenience of not having to redo all the CSS/JS that's integrated.
Example:
CSS
html {
height: 100%;
}
.sidebar {
background: #333;
margin: 0;
padding: 3em 2em;
height: 100%;
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #888;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 5px#888;
box-shadow: 0 0 5px #888;
min-height: 100%;
position: absolute;
}
.sidebar .logo { margin-bottom: 3em; }
.content {
margin: 5em;
}

You're already setting that sidebar to absolute, why bother with the height: 100%? It'd be easier to simply add top:0; bottom:0.
The reason your sidebar is getting slid over the content like that is the absolute positioning of the sidebar. If you want to keep that from happening, I'd recommend setting a defined width in your sidebar class (say, of 240px), then changing content's CSS to read like so:
.content {
padding: 5em;
left: 240px;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
overflow-y: auto;
}
That should constrain your content appropriately to not slide under your sidebar in any circumstance. Then, in order to make it appropriately responsive, adjust font size and width of your sidebar down as the screen reduces, and decrease the left property of .content to match the width of the sidebar.
Is that what you're looking for?
A slight twist on the common question of sticking a div to the bottom of a parent div. In this case I want the stuck div to STAY stuck even when it's parent is scrolled, and to be on top of the text that scrolls underneath. What's the trick? jsfiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/forgetcolor/vYjMv/1/. code repeated below:

Check this one.
Made the position: fixed of .bot and added a top and left.
I'm building a 3 row liquid layout. I have a fixed height header and a footer. I also have a minimum width for the wrapper (for these 3 rows).
The problem is, I can't make the middle one (#content) resize vertically. If I make position:absolute then I lose control over scrolling. I thought I could do it using the top,bottom,margin and padding while setting the height to 100% but I couldn't.
Here's the code that I'm using to test it and here's the fiddle link: http://jsfiddle.net/inhan/kUZgY/ You will see that the lighter gray background won't expand when window is resized.
I'm willing to use CSS only and not use HTML5 features. What am I missing? Thanks for any input.

Extra Info
I'm actually not really interested in setting a minimum width for the whole page but some middle content will need that. So if I can, I might wanna make the whole structure respect when there's min-width property in the content that is loaded.
This should be what you're after http://jsfiddle.net/kUZgY/6/
You were just missing html {height:100%;}
I also changed the #header and #footer to position:fixed
I recreated my issue here.
The problem is that the 'left' div should be matching the combined height of 'top' and bottom' right divs. I have been reading articles and tutorials on how to achieve equal height with columns of varying content but none of them seem to apply to the 'stacked' columns.
My current nonworking solution was built on a concept taken from this article:
The only way to make the height of a div equal to the tallest column
is if that div contains all the columns. So to explain this another
way, by placing the columns inside a container we cause the container
to be the height of the tallest column. This is a very useful
structure. For this structure to work correctly in all browsers the
container div must be floated (left or right) plus each of the column
content divs must also be floated, it does not matter which way.
I am aware of the equalHeights jQuery plugin and resize, but I would very much prefer CSS solutions.

CSS:

#container{
width:1000px;
margin:0 auto;
}
#height-container{
background:orange;
float:left;
}

You can use display:table property for this:

display: table;
vertical-align:top;
}
#left{
display: table-cell;
width:200px;

But it's work till IE8 & above
UPDATED
CSS
#left{

#right{

width:600px;
}
.clr{clear:both;}
HTML
<div id='right'></div>
<div id='left'>
<div class="clr"></div>
</div>
Check it http://jsfiddle.net/6rBAw/4/
Here is a solution which works in IE 7 as well http://jsfiddle.net/6rBAw/6/ this solution makes use of negative margin bottom and padding bottom, the only thing is you have to give the margin bottom and padding bottom value the same and a large value and give the container of the column overflow hidden property.
#container{
width:1000px;
margin:0 auto;
**overflow: hidden;**
}
#left{
float:left;
width:200px;
background:#CD5555;
**padding:20px 20px 99999px 20px;
margin-bottom: -99999px;**
}
#right{
width:600px;
float:right;
**padding-bottom: 99999px;
margin-bottom: -99999px;**
background-color: black;
height: 1000px;
}
I am facing an interesting problem while working on Google Map Page. Actually I want the Map DIV will cover the 70% of Width leaving 30% for My Menus and 60% of Height leaving 40% for my website banner.
When I assigned the div height and width in % the map will not render properly instead it either shrinks to top or left depending on the % attribute assigned. But when I explicitly assign height and width in px say 400px the map will render perfectly.
I have also tried the minwidth and minheight style attributes.
It really depends on your current HTML and CSS but here's one way to do it.
The main layout uses the YUI Grids framework with some tweaks to correct the height of the map. As Gutzofter mentioned the crux of the fix is to assign appropriate heights to all of the map's ancestor elements. The following code was tested on IE6, IE7, IE8, Chrome 3 and Firefox 3.5
