I have created a dropdown using select tag but the height of that dropdown is too small, and if I try to increase the height by using height:100px; or max-height: 100px; the button below that slips down, how do I increase the height by not moving the below button down by 100px and display dropdown over it.
The code for the dropdown is:
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="name" class="col-sm-4 col-form-label">Select Location:</label>
<div class="col-sm-8" style="overflow:auto;">
<select class="form-control multiselect" multiple="multiple" role="multiselect">
<option value="1">Item 1</option>
...
</select>
</div>
</div>
I am stuck in rendering div via ng-repeat. I want to render the coming divs in ng-repeat one by one covering half the page.
Here is my code:
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="form-group col-md-6" ng-repeat="field in selectedfields" ng-if="!selectedfields[$index].allowedValues || selectedfields[$index].allowedValues.length === 0 ">
<label class="control-label" for="domain">{{field.name}} </label>
<input placeholder="{{field.name}}" class="form-control" type="text" id="domain">
</div>
<div class="form-group col-md-6" ng-repeat="field in selectedfields" ng-if="selectedfields[$index].allowedValues.length >= 1">
<label class="control-label" for="{{field.name}}">{{field.name}} </label>
<select class="form-control">
<option value="{{allowedValue.name}}" ng-repeat="allowedValue in field.allowedValues" ng-model="field.allowedValues">{{allowedValue.name}}</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
The divs(textboxes/dropdown) under the parent div should appear one by one covering half the page, but they are coming on full page. Each div is rendering on next line. Can someone please suggest what am I doing wrong in giving the css class?
Your final layout should be
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="row">
<!-- ng-repeat stuff goes here !-->
</div>
</div>
I have 3 columns in my form for inputting the user's phone:
<div class="col-md-5">
<label class="control-label">Phone</label>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">
<label for="phone_code" class="sr-only"><fmt:message key="phoneCode"/></label>
<select class="form-control" name="phoneCode" id="phone_code">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
</select>
</div>
<span class="col-md-2 text-center">-</span>
<div class="col-md-6">
<label for="phone_number" class="sr-only">phone number</label>
<input type="tel" class="form-control" name="phoneNumber" id="phone_number" dir="LTR" value="${phoneNumber}">
</div>
</div>
</div>
http://www.bootply.com/jgFqaA4r6o
When I include the bootstrap css for rtl:
https://github.com/morteza/bootstrap-rtl
this flips the order of the columns, which in most cases is the desired result. However, I would like the phone input columns to remain in the same order (unaltered).
Including the pull-left class to the first two columns fixes the problem but causes errors when resizing (specifically, shrinking) the screen.
I have tried using/learning the col--pull-/col--push- classes but I couldn't figure out how to make them work here.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
I am also open to changing the general layout if there are improvements on that as well.
Thank you.
I changed the html and used a small "hack" to solve this.
There is still probably a better solution out there. This is my html:
<div class="col-md-5">
<div class="col-sm-4 col-xs-12 pull-left">
<label for="phone_code" class="control-label">phone code</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8 col-xs-12">
<label for="phone_number" class="control-label">phone number</label>
<input type="tel" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
http://www.bootply.com/tIW6xBHVGB
The "hack" is the "col-xs-12" class added to the <div> elements. If not added, the divs don't expand to take up the entire row as they should due to the "pull-left" class.
I'm open to hearing other suggestions.
I'm using angular bootstrap. At the top of our page we have a section that will be used for various control dropdowns. I want to have a 3-4 dropdowns with ng-if on them, having the appear or disappear depending on rather or not a given page allows the functionality of the dropdowns.
I would like these dropdowns to be centered. I may define btn 1, 2, 3, and 4 in order, but if only btn 3 and btn 4 are active they should show on the middle of the page, not on the right side. In other words if a dropdowns is disabled due to the ng-if argument the visible dropdowns should center align as if the other's never existed. Each dropdowns should be a standard width, so that I'm confident that all dropdowns will fit on a single row if all were active.
I'm having a horrible time getting this done, despite feeling that it should be trivially simple behavior. I've tried pagnation-centered, but it didn't seem to do anything. I've tried placing them in button groups, but that doesn't seem to be working either.
Can someone point me to the appropriate bootstrap classes to make this work?
Sure thing, take this CSS/HTML as example:
CSS
.form-inline .form-control.w140{
width:120px;
}
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-12">
<form class="form-inline text-center">
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control w140">
<option>foo</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control w140">
<option>foo</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control w140">
<option>foo</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control w140">
<option>foo</option>
</select>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The text-center class centers them, regardless of how many <div class="form-group"> there are.

I'm currently switching my website over to Bootstrap 3.0. I'm having an issue with form input and text formatting. What worked in Bootstrap 2 does not work in Bootstrap 3.
How can I get text on the same line before and after a form input? I have narrowed it down to a problem with the 'form-control" class in the Bootstrap 3 version of the example.
How would I go about getting all the text and input on one line? I would like the bootstrap 3 example to look like the bootstrap 2 example in the jsfiddle.
JS fiddle example
<div class="container ">
<form>
<h3> Format used to look like this in Bootstrap 2 </h3>
<div class="row ">
<label for="return1"><b>Return:</b></label>
<input id="return1" name='return1' class=" input input-sm" style="width:150px"
type="text" value='8/28/2013'>
<span id='return1' style='color:blue'> +/- 14 Days</span>
</div>
<br>
<br>
<h3> BootStrap 3 Version </h3>
<div class="row">
<label for="return2"><b>Return:</b></label>
<input id="return2" name='return2' class="form-control input input-sm" style="width:150px"
type="text" value='8/28/2013'>
<span id='return2' style='color:blue'> +/- 14 Days</span>
</div>
</form>
Update:
I change the code to this which works but having trouble with alignment now. Any ideas?
<div class="form-group">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3">
<label for="class_type"><h2><span class=" label label-primary">Class Type</span></h2></label>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<select name="class_type" id="class_type" class=" form-control input-lg" style="width:200px" autocomplete="off">
<option >Economy</option>
<option >Premium Economy</option>
<option >Club World</option>
<option >First Class</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
Straight from documentation http://getbootstrap.com/css/#forms-horizontal.
Use Bootstrap's predefined grid classes to align labels and groups of form controls in a horizontal layout by adding .form-horizontal to the form (which doesn't have to be a <form>). Doing so changes .form-groups to behave as grid rows, so no need for .row.
Sample:
<form class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputEmail3" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Email</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="inputEmail3" placeholder="Email">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputPassword3" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Password</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword3" placeholder="Password">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox"> Remember me
</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Sign in</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
I would put each element that you want inline inside a separate col-md-* div within your row. Or force your elements to display inline. The form-control class displays block because that's the way bootstrap thinks it should be done.
What you need is the .form-inline class. You need to be careful though, with the new .form.inline class you have to specify the width for each control.
Take a look at this
None of these worked for me, had to use .form-control-static class.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/#forms-controls-static
You can do it like this:
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="inputType" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Label</label>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="input" placeholder="Input text">
</div>
</div>
</form>
Fiddle
just give mother of div "class="col-lg-12""
<div class="form-group">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3">
<label for="class_type"><h2><span class=" label label-primary">Class Type</span></h2></label>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<select name="class_type" id="class_type" class=" form-control input-lg" style="width:200px" autocomplete="off">
<option >Economy</option>
<option >Premium Economy</option>
<option >Club World</option>
<option >First Class</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
it will be
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-lg-12">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3">
<label for="class_type"><h2><span class=" label label-primary">Class Type</span></h2></label>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<select name="class_type" id="class_type" class=" form-control input-lg" style="width:200px" autocomplete="off">
<option >Economy</option>
<option >Premium Economy</option>
<option >Club World</option>
<option >First Class</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The way I solved it was simply to add an override for all my textboxes on the main css of my site, as so:
.form-control {
display:initial !important;
}
In Bootstrap 4 for Horizontal element you can use .row with .col-*-* classes to specify the width of your labels and controls. see this link.
And if you want to display a series of labels, form controls, and buttons on a single horizontal row you can use .form-inline for more info this link
all please check the updated code as we have to use
form-control-static not only form-control

thanks with regards
Or you can do this:
<table>
<tr>
<td><b>Return:</b></td>
<td><input id="return1" name='return1'
class=" input input-sm" style="width:150px"
type="text" value='8/28/2013'></td>
</tr>
</table>
I tried every one of the suggestions above and none of them worked. I don't want to pick a fixed number of columns in the 12 column grid. I want the prompt, and the input right after it, and I want the columns to stretch as needed.
Yes, I know, that is against what bootstrap is all about. And you should NEVER use a table. Because DIV is so much better than tables. But the problem is that tables, rows, and cells actually WORK.
YES - I REALLY DO know that there are CSS zealots, and the knee-jerk reaction is never never never use TABLE, TR, and TD. Yes, I do know that DIV class="table" with DIV class="row" and DIV class="cell" is much much better. Except when it doesn't work, and there are many cases. I don't believe that people should blindly ignore those situations. There are times that the TABLE/TR/TD will work just fine, and there is not reason to use a more complicated and more fragile approach just because it is considered more elegant. A developer should understand what the benefits of the various approaches are, and the tradeoffs, and there is no absolute rule that DIVs are better.
"Case in point - based on this discussion I converted a few existing tds and trs to divs. 45 minutes messing about with it trying to get everything to line up next to each other and I gave up. TDs back in 10 seconds later - works - straight away - on all browsers, nothing more to do. Please try to make me understand - what possible justification do you have for wanting me to do it any other way!" See [https://stackoverflow.com/a/4278073/1758051]
And this: "
Layout should be easy. The fact that there are articles written on how to achieve a dynamic three column layout with header and footer in CSS shows that it is a poor layout system. Of course you can get it to work, but there are literally hundreds of articles online about how to do it. There are pretty much no such articles for a similar layout with tables because it's patently obvious. No matter what you say against tables and in favor of CSS, this one fact undoes it all: a basic three column layout in CSS is often called "The Holy Grail"." [https://stackoverflow.com/a/4964107/1758051]
I have yet to see a way to force DIVs to always line up in a column in all situations. I keep getting shown trivial examples that don't really run into the problems. "Responsive" is about providing a way that they will not always line up in a column. However, if you really want a column, you can waste hours trying to get DIV to work. Sometimes, you need to use appropriate technology no matter what the zealots say.
