Modernizer enables HTML5 on older browsers


HTML 5 elements in IE
                  
                                                     Modernizr runs through a little loop in JavaScript to enable the various elements from HTML5 (as well as abbr) for styling in Internet Explorer. Note that this does not mean it suddenly makes IE support the Audio or Video element, it just means that you can use section instead of div and style them in CSS. you’ll also probably want to set many of these elements to display:block; see the HTML5 Boilerplate CSS for an example. As of Modernizr 1.5, this script is identical to what is used in the popular html5shim/html5shiv library. Both also enable printability of HTML5 elements in IE6-8, though you might want to try out the performance hit if you have over 100kb of css.
