I have a problem with the Grid System of Bootstrap 2.
I want to make a header with some text, and an image on the right of it.
Therefore I made a row, and put a span8 and a span4 inside of it.
However, when the window gets too small for the content to be displayed side by side, I want the span4 div to come before the span8 div.
<div class="hero-unit">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="span8">
This is some text
</div>
<div class="span4">
<img src="image.png" alt="" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
How can I do this?
So in other words, how can I change the order of the divs.
If I'm not completely mistaking, there is no such thing described in the documentation.
You can do it with media queries and floats.
Should look somewhat like this:
<div class="span4 pull-right"><!-- Image here --></div>
<div class="span8"><!-- Text here --></div>
Now you should use a media query (as seen in the responsive.less file) to switch when the screen size jumps below a specific mark. Then you make sure that the span4's float is removed. You might need to use .row-fluid instead of the usual .row and use your own padding to make it look great.

Here is my Bootstrap 3 jsFiddle, although you'll likely need to view it in full screen view in order to see it in all its glory.
As you can see, there are two TB3 "wells" called Herps and Derps. They are currently sitting on top of one another, and furthermore, they are wider than the navbar, jumbotron and footer wells.
I'd like these to both be next to each other on the same line/"row", and I'd like the two wells to be the same width of all the other contents. I'd also like to have a bit of padding (spacing) between the two wells so that they're not smushed right up next to each other.
My best attempt (from that jsFiddle above):
<div class="row">
<div class="span6">
<div class="well">Herps</div>
</div>
<div class="span6">
<div class="well">Derps</div>
</div>
</div>
...does not seem to be doing the trick. Any ideas where I'm going awry?
You need to use the col-x-y css styles for your wells for the appropriate screen size and columns. In this case, you could use col-sm-6 since you have two columns.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6">
<div class="well">Herps</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<div class="well">Derps</div>
</div>
</div>

Bootstrap Grid System
I want an image to stay exactly on the left side of the screen(fix it to the left side). I want the image to "start" from the screen's side. I managed to do this with
position:fixed; left: -15px;
and it works from the viewpoint of the image, it starts at the screen's left side exactly on every screen I tested.
BUT it ruins other things, namely the text on the same row will be on top of the picture, AND if I decrease the windows/screen size it will become more of a mess with the text.
What's a better solution?
My code:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3" id="swoosh">
<img class="img-responsive" src="img/img1.png">
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<h1>Title of the website</h1>
<p class="lead">Use this document as a way to quickly start any new project.<br> All you get is this text and a mostly barebones HTML document.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<img class="img-responsive" src="img/logo.png">
</div>
</div>
I want the first picture, so img1.png to be on the left, the title should be in the middle, and the logo.png on the right. The second image, the logo.png doesn't need to be fixed to the right, just img1 to the left.
I tried to provide the all the info you need, but I'm new here so please tell me if there's anything more you need!
Thank you in advance!
EDIT: Added fiddles.
As you can see, the black image does not start at the screen's left side exactly here:

The next fiddle shows you how the black image should be positioned, but it ruins the site:

Actually, your html almost works. As you found out, using a fixed position within Bootstrap's grid system doesn't work very well.
Rather than trying to fix the <div> to the left edge, you should try fixing the image to the left edge. You don't need to use absolute positioning to do it. You can use a negative margin-left value to shift the image to the left. See updated code below
#swoosh {
margin-left: -15px;
}
<div class='container-fluid'>
<div class="row outerDiv">
<div class="col-xs-3 col-md-2 imageDiv" >
<img class="img-responsive" id="swoosh" ...
The actual value of the margin-left value is a little fuzzy. The value of -15px is to offset the padding-left value in the Bootstrap's col-xxxx classes. You will need to adjust the the value to meet your needs.
I've created a working version at JSBin
Okay, you have the row element within a container - so unless you use negative margins you won't be able to move the element the whole way across. You could place that row within a container-fluid element which will remove the restrictions on the location but it would stretch the element the whole width of the screen
<div class="container">
<div class="navbar navbar-default">
<p>Navbar Code Here</p>
</div>
</div><!-- /.container -->
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3" id="swoosh">
<img class="img-responsive" src="http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/uncyclopedia/images/7/71/Black.png">
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<h1>Title of the website</h1>
<p class="lead">Use this document as a way to quickly start any new project.<br> All you get is this text and a mostly barebones HTML document.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<img class="img-responsive" src="http://globe-views.com/dcim/dreams/red/red-01.jpg">
</div>
</div>
</div><!-- /.container-fluid -->
You can then remove the padding on that left image by applying
#swoosh {padding-left: 0;}
to your css.
If you need to change the alignment of the columns in responsive views, you should start taking a look at http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid-example-mixed-complete to change the layout at the viewport reduces - perhaps using col-xs-6 etc to achieve the alignment you are after
I'm building a website which will list some buildings for sale with a picture and a small description. Since I want the website to be responsive I'm trying to use the Bootstrap3 grid system.
So the current html I have is as follows (running code here on bootply):
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-8">
<article class="row property-ad">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<img class="property-thumbnail" src="https://uwaterloo.ca/pharmacy/sites/ca.pharmacy/files/uploads/images/pharmacy-building-street-view.jpg">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">
<div class="property-ad-title">Nice building</div>
<div class="property-ad-description">and some describing text here</div>
</div>
</article>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="right-side-ad">
some advertisement is going here
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The problem is that the title and description are only displayed correctly on a large (lg) screen. On an md or sm screen however, the title and description are partly displayed on top of the image because the image appears larger than its container. I tried giving the image a max-width: inherit;, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Next to the fact that I don't know how to give it a proper max-width, the main problem seems to be that I don't really know what behaviour I would want. Because if the image resizes its width, it would either get distorted, or it would also need to change its heigth. If the height changes however, the text next to it could get a larger height than the image, which would also make the layout look messy.
So my main questions;
What is the typical desired behaviour to make a website responsive when working with images that are next to text?
How would I implement that?
All tips are welcome!
Don't use your custome class for the img just add the bootstrap class for responsive images
img-responsive
<div class="col-sm-4">
<img class="img-responsive" src=".....jpg">
</div>

Simply stated: Bootstrap has the img-responsive class, or you could set max-width: 100% to the img tag.
Using twitter bootstrap, I'm trying to float some .well divs inside a modal box, but it's giving me all kinds of headaches.
Basically, I want each well to contain two things, some text on the left, and an image on the right. I want those two in the same row. Then, I want the wells floating next to each other.
Unfortunately, I can't get the content of the well to work correctly. The text always gets squished to the left, and the image is also to the left, and the entire right side is empty.
Here's my css:
<div class="modal-body">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4 oneBook">
<div class="well">
<div class="row">
<div class="span2">
<p><strong>Book Title</strong>: Claw of the Conciliator<br>
<strong>Author:</strong>: Gene Wolfe<br>
</div>
<div class="offset3">
<img class="img-polaroid smallerImage" src="http://www.picturesofbooks.com/claw-of-the-conciliator"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The div with the class oneBook would be repeated multiple times for however many books I want to display in the modal.
Does anyone have any suggestions to get this to work?
<div class="offset3 span3"><img class="img-polaroid smallerImage" src="http://www.picturesofbooks.com/claw-of-the-conciliator"/></div>
Im using the newest twitter bootstrap to construct a responsive grid website. i have three divs across a responsive grid like so:
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4">...</div>
<div class="span4">...</div>
<div class="span4">...</div>
</div>
...and this works as intended via the bootsrap documentation. However I have a separate background color on these divs from the html body background color, and when i drag the browser window to a smaller width to "collapse" the divs to show on top of each other, the gutter space between them disappears (creating a look of one big div versus three separate ones) is there anything i can do to create some gutter space between the divs when the width gets small enough to cause them to stack vertically?
You have a couple options...
(1) You could define a class and apply it to any divs you want to have a bottom margin.
In your application.css (or similar):
.mb10 {margin-bottom:10px;}
In your html page:
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4 mb10">....</div>
<div class="span4 mb10">....</div>
<div class="span4 mb10">....</div>
</div>
OR
(2) You could make sure you wrap your div.span4 content in <p></p> tags.
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4"><p>....</p></div>
<div class="span4"><p>....</p></div>
<div class="span4"><p>....</p></div>
</div>
From the Bootstrap - Typography section:
http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/base-css.html#typography
In addition,
<p> (paragraphs) receive a bottom margin of half their line-height
(10px by default).
