I have read a lot about adding HTML5.js for IE7/8 support. Even though the documentation says that adding html5.js just causes IE7/8 to not ignore HTML5 tags and apply the styles.
I am really confused as to what it does, like does it have any impact on CSS3 styles working on IE OR it just causes CSS to be applied to HTML5 elements.

    html5.js works by creating polyfills via JavaScript that specifically enforce certain rules of html5 elements in browsers that do not support them. but even after the js turns them “on”, you are still going to have to target them via css to enforce styles. check out this fiddle in any browser that doesn’t support html5, then uncomment out the script element and view it again. you’ll see what i’m talking about http://jsfiddle.net/TR8z5/
