Add pretty html5 history support to Backbone

	#
	# Replaces Backbone.History with support for HTML5 history API if browser supports it.
	# To use, setup your controllers as usual and try it with a browser that supports the HTML5 history API.
	# For browsers that don't support the HTML5 API, this will fall back to using the default Backbone hash routing.
	#
	# I have only tested this on my project in Firefox, Safari and Chrome so let me know.
	#
	pushSupport = window.history? and window.history.pushState?
	if pushSupport and Backbone? and Backbone.History?
	rootUrl = document.location.protocol+'//'+(document.location.host or document.location.hostname)

	// ----------------------------------------------------------
	// A short snippet for detecting versions of IE in JavaScript
	// without resorting to user-agent sniffing
	// ----------------------------------------------------------
	// If you're not in IE (or IE version is less than 5) then:
	// ie === undefined
	// If you're in IE (>=5) then you can determine which version:
	// ie === 7; // IE7
	// Thus, to detect IE:
	// if (ie) {}

CSS for <sub> and <sup>

	font-size: 75%;

	/* Zero out the line-height so that it doesn't

	line-height: 0;

	/* Where the magic happens: makes all browsers position
