twitter bootstrap navbar fixed top overlapping site

Question

I am using bootstrap on my site and am having issues with the navbar fixed top. When I am just using the regular navbar, everything is fine. However, when i try to switch it

@Ryan, you are right, hard-coding the height will make it work bad in case of custom navbars. This is the code I am using for BS 3.0.0 happily:

$(window).resize(function () { 
   $('body').css('padding-top', parseInt($('#main-navbar').css("height"))+10);
});

$(window).load(function () { 
   $('body').css('padding-top', parseInt($('#main-navbar').css("height"))+10);         
});
