I use twitter bootstrap 2 version.
<div class="span4">
&{'main.menu.with.me'}
&{'main.menu.raise.request'}
</div>
I need to put 2 buttons to the right with space between them. But if I put pull-right to both there is no space between them, I injecting doesn't help.
not very good at html, but I'd do something like this:
bootstrap 2:
<div class="span4">
<div class='pull-right'>
&{'main.menu.with.me'}
&{'main.menu.raise.request'}
</div>
</div>
in this case you'd want a div.clearfix after the one with pull-right and there is no css involved unless you want more space between buttons then bootstrap already has.
(update 4.08.2016) bootstrap 3:
<div class='btn-toolbar'>
&{'main.menu.with.me'}
&{'main.menu.raise.request'}
</div>
simply add pull-right to both the buttons
the, to give space :
.btn{
margin-right:10px;
}
Also, keep in mind that, pulling right would change the order of the buttons...so better swap according to your layout (i have done that in my fiddle example)
fiddle demo
.span4 .btn {
margin-left: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
}

I am using bootstrap and I was wondering what would be a clean way to give a background to my container.
I am using the bootstrap class container, not container-fluid. Bootstrap doc clearly states that I shouldn't nest containers, so what is the alternative to achieve this goal ? If I set a background to my container the left and right margins are still white, I want to colour that space as well, but I also want my content to be aligned the way the container is aligned, not the way the container-fluid is aligned. Any suggestions ? My current solution is nesting a container inside container-fluid and remove the padding from the first one, but I want to make a better solution that doesn't go against the bootstrap documentation.
Thanks in advance !
EDIT
Here is for example what I had
<div class="container-fluid my-class">
<div class="container">
Some rows and columns here
</div>
</div>
and then I override bootstrap's padding in css
.container-fluid {
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
}
.my-class {
background: red;
}
But, like I said, this is the bad way to do it.
Bootstrap doc clearly states that I shouldn't nest containers under other containers so just nest your container div under a new class div say, container-bg and add the background-image to that div like this:
HTML:
<div class="container-bg">
<div class="container">
<!-- your content -->
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.container-bg {
background: xxx;
}
If you want to set the background for the whole page, then set it on body.
If you want to set it for a section of the page, then wrap that section in an appropriate element (such as div or section), add a class, id or some other way to target it with a selector … just not one that uses a class provided by Bootstrap.
For Boostrap V4.0 and later
If you want to use boostrap colors as background, you can use these colors for the background, like below example
<div class="container bg-dark">
<!-- your content -->
</div>
I am trying to achieve a similar look to paypal.com's page. I am having trouble right aligning some of my content. I have a cover bg for each section, but I need the content to shift left and right.
I am not 100% understand your question, but as align in paypal.com modify your div as below
<div class="pull-right section col-md-6 light text-left">
add "pull-right" and make it "text-left"
Hope this is helpfull!!!
in bootstrap there are some specific classes to text alignment
.text-left{
/* Text align left */
}
.text-right{
/* Text align right*/
}
.text-center{
/* Text align center*/
}
Using above mentioned classes you can align content aswell as
inline-elements in your layout. you should also check bootstrap documentation on the same topic http://getbootstrap.com/css/#type-alignment
I am not really sure what you are trying to achieve. You should elaborate and and a little better so that we can help
.text-center, .text-right, .text-left, .pull-right, .pull-left
are all helper methods in bootstrap for positon also look into using the grid
NOTE: this was removed in Bootstrap 3.
Pre-Bootstrap 3, you could use the CSS class pagination-centered like this:
<div class="span12 pagination-centered">
Centered content.
</div>
Class pagination-centered is already in bootstrap.css (or bootstrap.min.css) and has the only one rule:
.pagination-centered{text-align:center;}
With Bootstrap 2.3.0. just use class text-center
I would like a button between two hr elements with a bit of spacing wither side of the button and for this to remain the same when collapsing. I am using the Bootstrap framework.
I have got the current effect using the second answer from this question:
Add centered text to the middle of a <hr/>-like line
Therefore, my code is the same as what the answer provided. The first answer doesn't provide the spacing either side of the button.
Using media queries I am able to maintain the desired effect until I reach the 768px width break. Where this happens:
I can't continue to use media queries as I would have to apply them per pixel!
There must be an elegant solution to this? I'm assuming better use of columns and width percentages ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Using Bootstrap this solution should work fiddle:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-5">
<hr>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<a class="btn btn-md btn-primary">Add</a>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-5">
<hr>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You can use image for these lines by simply adding img tag:
CSS
img{
width:200px;
border:0;
height:10px;
background:url(http://goo.gl/bPZONP);
}
HTML
<div><img src="http://goo.gl/bPZONP">Button<img src="http://goo.gl/bPZONP"></div>

I have a fiddle here which shows my issue. You may need to make the 'result' quadrant wider to show the issue.
I have a couple of columns in my bootstrap layout but I can't seem to get my button to layout inside the parent div, it always seems to overlap it:
At first I thought it was due to the padding of the columns in bootstrap but I have removed that and the problem persists. I'm obviously missing something fundamental about how this is supposed to work, so any pointers to some help with css might not go amiss either.
apparently I have to link to some code to include a link to a fiddle so here is some:
My html is:
<div class="col-md-3 col-lg-3 nopadding">
<div class="definition-pallette">
<div class="row nopadding">
<div class="col nopadding"><button data-bind="click: showStepModal">+ Step</button></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and the additional css on top of the bootstrap default is:
.nopadding {
padding-left: 0 !important;
padding-right: 0 !important;
}
Seems to be a few things going on here. The main issue is you are using a lot of divs with a class of 'col' inside your 'row' divs. To get them to start behaving you need to define what size the col is. This fixes most of your problems. So for example, where you have this
<div class="row">
<div class="col">Some content</div>
</div>
Change that to something like
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">Some content</div>
</div>
And it starts behaving.
I also got rid of your .nopadding class as you don't need that.
Here is an updated fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/T4XY4/1/ - it fixes most of the things in the right panel, but I'll leave the rest to you. You may want to choose which classes you actually want inside your 'row' divs, I just chucked in xs-12 for simplicity.
Edit
The Bootstrap docs confirms that if you are nesting columns you need proper col-* classes - http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid-nesting
Its caused by bootstraps margins in the row class adding margin:0; to your no padding class will fix this but might cause layout issues in other places or on mobile devices.
.row {
margin-right: -15px;
margin-left: -15px;
}
There are some options I can choose from when it comes to horizontal center alignment with Bootstap.
I can either use offset class or use blank span class as a placeholder.
One other option can be using custom alignment like the following
.center {
float: none;
margin: 0 auto;
}
None of these options solve my issue because the content of the div container has to fill up the width by 100%.
Let's say I have the following
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4 offset4">
<button class="btn">1-1</button>
<button class="btn">1-2</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
If the buttons do not fill up the whole div space of span4, I won't get the real center alignment. Perhaps, I can make the content stretch to 100% but I don't know if this is any good practice.
Here I have a canvas to play with. JS BIN
Since you have inline elements you can just use the .text-center class on the span, also your're probably better off using offsets than empty elements:
HTML
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4 offset4 text-center">
<button class="btn">1-1</button>
<button class="btn">1-2</button>
</div>
</div>
Updated demo: http://jsbin.com/ayuFEhO/2/edit
You don't need add a new class, if you want horizontal align this buttons, just use .text-center here is a bin http://jsbin.com/UVeGejO/1/edit
Obs: text-center class already exist on twitter's bootstrap code.
