So I'm messing around with the new bootstrap V3, and there is absolutely one thing that is driving me insane. There is no space between a fixed top navbar and the item that follows it. I've tried changing the padding on the item(whether it be jumbotron or carousel) and the padding on the navbar to no avail. Its literally driving me insane. any fixes?
<body>
<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="container">

<button class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=

<div class="collapse navbar-collapse">

The bootstrap documentation recommends adding top padding to the <body>
- equal to the height of your navbar:
The fixed navbar will overlay your other content, unless you add padding to the top of the
<body>
body {
padding-top: 50px; /* Whatever the height of your navbar is; the
default is 50px */
}
