    <p>This is the most basic form of Bootstrap: precompiled files for quick drop-in usage in nearly any web project. We provide compiled CSS and JS (<code>bootstrap.*</code>), as well as compiled and minified CSS and JS (<code>bootstrap.min.*</code>). Fonts from Glyphicons are included, as is the optional Bootstrap theme.</p>

    <p class="lead">Bootstrap automatically adapts your pages for various screen sizes.
292
      Here's how to disable this feature so your page works like in <a href="../examples/non-responsive/">this non-responsive example</a>.</p>
293

294
    <h3>Steps to disable page responsiveness</h3>
295
    <ol>
296
      <li>Omit the viewport <code>&lt;meta&gt;</code> mentioned in <a href="../css/#overview-mobile">the CSS docs</a></li>
297
      <li>Override the <code>width</code> on the <code>.container</code> for each grid tier with a single width, for example <code>width: 970px !important;</code> Be sure that this comes after the default Bootstrap CSS. You can optionally avoid the <code>!important</code> with media queries or some selector-fu.</li>
298
      <li>If using navbars, remove all navbar collapsing and expanding behavior.</li>
299
      <li>For grid layouts, use <code>.col-xs-*</code> classes in addition to, or in place of, the medium/large ones. Don't worry, the extra-small device grid scales to all resolutions.</li>
300
    </ol>
301
    <p>You'll still need Respond.js for IE8 (since our media queries are still there and need to be processed).
302
      This disables the "mobile site" aspects of Bootstrap.</p>
303

304
305
    <h3>Bootstrap template with responsiveness disabled</h3>
    <p>We've applied these steps to an example. Read its source code to see the specific changes implemented.</p>

711
    <p>Other changes in v3.0 are not immediately apparent. Base classes, key styles, and behaviors have been adjusted for flexibility and our <em>mobile first</em> approach. Here's a partial list:</p>
Mark Otto's avatar
Mark Otto committed
712
    <ul>
713
714
      <li>By default, text-based form controls now receive only minimal styling.  For focus colors and rounded corners, apply the <code>.form-control</code> class on the element to style.</li>
      <li>Text-based form controls with the <code>.form-control</code> class applied are now 100% wide by default. Wrap inputs inside <code>&lt;div class="col-*"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code> to control input widths.</li>
Mark Otto's avatar
Mark Otto committed
715
716
717
718
      <li><code>.badge</code> no longer has contextual (-success,-primary,etc..) classes.</li>
      <li><code>.btn</code> must also use <code>.btn-default</code> to get the "default" button.</li>
      <li><code>.container</code> and <code>.row</code> are now fluid (percentage-based).</li>
      <li>Images are no longer responsive by default. Use <code>.img-responsive</code> for fluid <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> size.</li>
719
      <li>The icons, now <code>.glyphicon</code>, are now font based. Icons also require a base and icon class (e.g. <code>.glyphicon .glyphicon-asterisk</code>).</li>

720
      <li>Typeahead has been dropped, in favor of using <a href="http://twitter.github.io/typeahead.js/">Twitter Typeahead</a>.</li>
721
      <li>Modal markup has changed significantly. The <code>.modal-header</code>, <code>.modal-body</code>, and <code>.modal-footer</code> sections are now wrapped in <code>.modal-content</code> and <code>.modal-dialog</code> for better mobile styling and behavior.</li>
722
      <li>The HTML loaded by the <code>remote</code> modal option is now injected into the <code>.modal</code> instead of into the <code>.modal-body</code>. This allows you to also easily vary the header and footer of the modal, not just the modal body.</li>
723
      <li>JavaScript events are namespaced. For example, to handle the modal "show" event, use <code>'show.bs.modal'</code>. For tabs "shown" use <code>'shown.bs.tab'</code>, etc.</li>

801
    <p>IE8 does not fully support <code>box-sizing: border-box;</code> when combined with <code>min-width</code>, <code>max-width</code>, <code>min-height</code>, or <code>max-height</code>. For that reason, as of v3.0.1, we no longer use <code>max-width</code> on <code>.container</code>s.</p>

    <h3 id="ie-10-width">Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8</h3>
812
813
814
815
816
    <p>Internet Explorer 10 doesn't differentiate <strong>device width</strong> from <strong>viewport width</strong>, and thus doesn't properly apply the media queries in Bootstrap's CSS. Normally you'd just add a quick snippet of CSS to fix this:</p>
{% highlight css %}
@-ms-viewport       { width: device-width; }
{% endhighlight %}
    <p>However, this doesn't work as it causes Windows Phone 8 devices to show a mostly desktop view instead of narrow "phone" view. To address this, you'll need to <strong>include the following CSS and JavaScript to work around the bug until Microsoft issues a fix</strong>.</p>

839
    <h3 id="safari-percentages">Safari percent rounding</h3>
840
    <p>As of Safari v6.1 for OS X and Safari for iOS v7.0.1, Safari's rendering engine has some trouble with the number of decimal places used in our <code>.col-*-1</code> grid classes. So if you have 12 individual grid columns, you'll notice that they come up short compared to other rows of columns. We can't do much here (<a href="https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9282">see #9282</a>) but you do have some options:</p>
841
842
    <ul>
      <li>Add <code>.pull-right</code> to your last grid column to get the hard-right alignment</li>
Mark Otto's avatar
Mark Otto committed
843
      <li>Tweak your percentages manually to get the perfect rounding for Safari (more difficult than the first option)</li>
844
845
    </ul>
    <p>We'll keep an eye on this though and update our code if we have an easy solution.</p>
846

847
    <h3 id="mobile-modals">Modals and mobile devices</h3>
848
    <h4>Overflow and scrolling</h4>
849
    <p>Support for <code>overflow: hidden</code> on the <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> element is quite limited in iOS and Android. To that end, when you scroll past the top or bottom of a modal in either of those devices' browsers, the <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> content will begin to scroll.</p>
850
    <h4>Virtual keyboards</h4>
851
    <p>Also, note that if you're using inputs in your modal – iOS has a rendering bug that doesn't update the position of fixed elements when the virtual keyboard is triggered. A few workarounds for this include transforming your elements to <code>position: absolute</code> or invoking a timer on focus to try to correct the positioning manually. This is not handled by Bootstrap, so it is up to you to decide which solution is best for your application.</p>
852

853
    <h3 id="browser-zoom">Browser zooming</h3>
854
    <p>Page zooming inevitably presents rendering artifacts in some components, both in Bootstrap and the rest of the web. Depending on the issue, we may be able to fix it (search first and then open an issue if need be). However, we tend to ignore these as they often have no direct solution other than hacky workarounds.</p>

    <h3>Box-sizing</h3>
867
868
    <p>Some third party software, including Google Maps and Google Custom Search Engine, conflict with Bootstrap due to <code>* { box-sizing: border-box; }</code>, a rule which makes it so <code>padding</code> does not affect the final computed width of an element. Learn more about <a href="http://css-tricks.com/box-sizing/">box model and sizing at CSS Tricks</a>.</p>

    <p class="lead">Bootstrap is best maintained when you treat it as a separate and independently-versioned dependency in your development environment. Doing this makes upgrading Bootstrap easier in the future.</p>

    <p>Once you've downloaded and included Bootstrap's styles and scripts, you can customize its components. Just create a new stylesheet (LESS, if you like, or just plain CSS) to house your customizations.</p>
