Toggleable, contextual menu for displaying lists of links. Made interactive with the dropdown JavaScript plugin.

Wrap the dropdown's trigger and the dropdown menu within .dropdown, or another element that declares position: relative;. Then add the menu's HTML.

<div class="dropdown">
   <button class="btn dropdown-toggle sr-only" type="button" id="dropdownMenu1" data-toggle="dropdown">
      Dropdown
      <span class="caret"></span>
   </button>
   <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu1">
      <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Action</a></li>
      <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Another action</a></li>
      <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
      <li role="presentation" class="divider"></li>
      <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Separated link</a></li>
   </ul>
</div>

By default, a dropdown menu is automatically positioned 100% from the top and along the left side of its parent. Add .dropdown-menu-right to a .dropdown-menu to right align the dropdown menu.

May require additional positioning

Dropdowns are automatically positioned via CSS within the normal flow of the document. This means dropdowns may be cropped by parents with certain overflow properties or appear out of bounds of the viewport. Address these issues on your own as they arise.

Deprecated .pull-right alignment

As of v3.1.0, we've deprecated .pull-right on dropdown menus. To right-align a menu, use .dropdown-menu-right. Right-aligned nav components in the navbar use a mixin version of this class to automatically align the menu. To override it, use .dropdown-menu-left.

<ul class="dropdown-menu pull-right" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dLabel">
...
</ul>

Add a header to label sections of actions in any dropdown menu.

<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu2">
   <li role="presentation" class="dropdown-header">Dropdown header</li>
   ...
   <li role="presentation" class="divider"></li>
   <li role="presentation" class="dropdown-header">Dropdown header</li>
   ...
</ul>

Add a divider to separate series of links in a dropdown menu.

<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuDivider">
  ...
  <li role="presentation" class="divider"></li>
  ...
</ul>

Add .disabled to a <li> in the dropdown to disable the link.

<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu3">
  <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Regular link</a></li>
  <li role="presentation" class="disabled"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Disabled link</a></li>
  <li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" href="#">Another link</a></li>
</ul>

Group a series of buttons together on a single line with the button group. Add on optional JavaScript radio and checkbox style behavior with our buttons plugin.

Tooltips & popovers in button groups require special setting

When using tooltips or popovers on elements within a .btn-group, you'll have to specify the option container: 'body' to avoid unwanted side effects (such as the element growing wider and/or losing its rounded corners when the tooltip or popover is triggered).

Ensure correct role and provide a label

In order for assistive technologies – such as screen readers – to convey that a series of buttons is grouped, an appropriate role attribute needs to be provided. For button groups, this would be role="group", while toolbars should have a role="toolbar".

One exception are groups which only contain a single control (for instance the justified button groups with <button> elements) or a dropdown.

In addition, groups and toolbars should be given an explicit label, as most assistive technologies will otherwise not announce them, despite the presence of the correct role attribute. In the examples provided here, we use aria-label, but alternatives such as aria-labelledby can also be used.

Basic example

Wrap a series of buttons with .btn in .btn-group.

<div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Left</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Middle</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Right</button>
</div>

Button toolbar

Combine sets of <div class="btn-group"> into a <div class="btn-toolbar"> for more complex components.

<div class="btn-toolbar" role="toolbar" aria-label="...">
  <div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
  <div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
  <div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
</div>

Sizing

Instead of applying button sizing classes to every button in a group, just add .btn-group-* to each .btn-group, including when nesting multiple groups.

<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>
<div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">...</div>

Nesting

Place a .btn-group within another .btn-group when you want dropdown menus mixed with a series of buttons.

<div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">1</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">2</button>

  <div class="btn-group" role="group">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
      Dropdown
      <span class="caret"></span>
    </button>
    <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
      <li><a href="#">Dropdown link</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Dropdown link</a></li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</div>

Vertical variation

Make a set of buttons appear vertically stacked rather than horizontally. Split button dropdowns are not supported here.

<div class="btn-group-vertical" role="group" aria-label="...">
  ...
</div>

Justified button groups

Make a group of buttons stretch at the same size to span the entire width of its parent. Also works with button dropdowns within the button group.

Handling borders

Due to the specific HTML and CSS used to justify buttons (namely display: table-cell), the borders between them are doubled. In regular button groups, margin-left: -1px is used to stack the borders instead of removing them. However, margin doesn't work with display: table-cell. As a result, depending on your customizations to Bootstrap, you may wish to remove or re-color the borders.

IE8 and borders

Internet Explorer 8 doesn't render borders on buttons in a justified button group, whether it's on <a> or <button> elements. To get around that, wrap each button in another .btn-group.

See #12476 for more information.

With <a> elements

Just wrap a series of .btns in .btn-group.btn-group-justified.

<div class="btn-group btn-group-justified" role="group" aria-label="...">
  ...
</div>

Links acting as buttons

If the <a> elements are used to act as buttons – triggering in-page functionality, rather than navigating to another document or section within the current page – they should also be given an appropriate role="button".

With <button> elements

To use justified button groups with <button> elements, you must wrap each button in a button group. Most browsers don't properly apply our CSS for justification to <button> elements, but since we support button dropdowns, we can workaround that.

<div class="btn-group btn-group-justified" role="group" aria-label="...">
  <div class="btn-group">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Left</button>
  </div>
  <div class="btn-group">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Middle</button>
  </div>
  <div class="btn-group">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Right</button>
  </div>
</div>

Use any button to trigger a dropdown menu by placing it within a .btn-group and providing the proper menu markup.

Plugin dependency

Button dropdowns require the dropdown plugin to be included in your version of Bootstrap.

Single button dropdowns

Turn a button into a dropdown toggle with some basic markup changes.

<!-- Single button -->
<div class="btn-group">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
    Action <span class="caret"></span>
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
    <li><a href="#">Action</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li>
    <li class="divider"></li>
    <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

Split button dropdowns

Similarly, create split button dropdowns with the same markup changes, only with a separate button.

<!-- Split button -->
<div class="btn-group">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Action</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
    <span class="caret"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Toggle Dropdown</span>
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
    <li><a href="#">Action</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li>
    <li class="divider"></li>
    <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

Sizing

Button dropdowns work with buttons of all sizes.

<!-- Large button group -->
<div class="btn-group">
  <button class="btn btn-default btn-lg dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false"> Large button <span class="caret"></span></button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
    ...
  </ul>
</div>

<!-- Large button group with separated caret -->
<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg">
  <button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
    Regular button <span class="caret"></span>
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
    ...
  </ul>
</div>

Dropup variation

Trigger dropdown menus above elements by adding .dropup to the parent.

<div class="btn-group dropup">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Dropup</button>
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">
    <span class="caret"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Toggle Dropdown</span>
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu">
     <!-- Dropdown menu links -->
  </ul>
</div>

Extend form controls by adding text or buttons before, after, or on both sides of any text-based input. Use .input-group with an .input-group-addon to prepend or append elements to a .form-control.

Textual <input>s only

Avoid using <select> elements here as they cannot be fully styled in WebKit browsers.

Avoid using <textarea> elements here as their rows attribute will not be respected in some cases.

Tooltips & popovers in input groups require special setting

When using tooltips or popovers on elements within an .input-group, you'll have to specify the option container: 'body' to avoid unwanted side effects (such as the element growing wider and/or losing its rounded corners when the tooltip or popover is triggered).

Don't mix with other components

Do not mix form groups or grid column classes directly with input groups. Instead, nest the input group inside of the form group or grid-related element.

Always add labels

Screen readers will have trouble with your forms if you don't include a label for every input. For these input groups, ensure that any additional label or functionality is conveyed to assistive technologies.

The exact technique to be used (<label> elements hidden using the .sr-only class, or use of the aria-label, aria-labelledby, aria-describedby, title or placeholder attribute) and what additional information will need to be conveyed will vary depending on the exact type of interface widget you're implementing. The examples in this section provide a few suggested, case-specific approaches.

Basic example

Place one add-on or button on either side of an input. You may also place one on both sides of an input.

We do not support multiple add-ons on a single side.

We do not support multiple form-controls in a single input group.

@

.00

$ .00
<div class="input-group">
  <span class="input-group-addon">@</span>
  <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-describedby="basic-addon1">
</div>

<div class="input-group">
  <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Recipient's username" aria-describedby="basic-addon2">
  <span class="input-group-addon">.00</span>
</div>

<div class="input-group">
  <span class="input-group-addon">$</span>
  <input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Amount (to the nearest dollar)">
  <span class="input-group-addon">.00</span>
</div>

Checkboxes and radio addons

Place any checkbox or radio option within an input group's addon instead of text.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-lg-6">
    <div class="input-group">
      <span class="input-group-addon">
        <input type="checkbox" aria-label="...">
      </span>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="...">
    </div>/input-group
  </div>/.col-lg-6
  <div class="col-lg-6">
    <div class="input-group">
      <span class="input-group-addon">
        <input type="radio" aria-label="...">
      </span>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="...">
    </div>/input-group
  </div>/.col-lg-6
</div>/.row

Button addons

Buttons in input groups are a bit different and require one extra level of nesting. Instead of .input-group-addon, you'll need to use .input-group-btn to wrap the buttons. This is required due to default browser styles that cannot be overridden.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-lg-6">
    <div class="input-group">
      <span class="input-group-btn">
        <button class="btn btn-default" type="button">Go!</button>
      </span>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search for...">
    </div><!-- /input-group -->
  </div><!-- /.col-lg-6 -->
  <div class="col-lg-6">
    <div class="input-group">
      <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search for...">
      <span class="input-group-btn">
        <button class="btn btn-default" type="button">Go!</button>
      </span>
    </div><!-- /input-group -->
  </div><!-- /.col-lg-6 -->
</div><!-- /.row -->

Navs available in Bootstrap have shared markup, starting with the base .nav class, as well as shared states. Swap modifier classes to switch between each style.

Using navs for tab panels requires JavaScript tabs plugin

For tabs with tabbable areas, you must use the tabs JavaScript plugin. The markup will also require additional role and ARIA attributes – see the plugin's example markup for further details.

Make navs used as navigation accessible

If you are using navs to provide a navigation bar, be sure to add a role="navigation" to the most logical parent container of the <ul>, or wrap a <nav> element around the whole navigation. Do not add the role to the <ul> itself, as this would prevent it from being announced as an actual list by assistive technologies.

Note the .nav-tabs class requires the .nav base class.

  <li role="presentation"><a href="#" data-toggle="tab">Tab example</a></li>
  <li role="presentation" class="disabled"><a href="#" data-toggle="tab">Disabled tab</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

Requires JavaScript tabs plugin

For tabs with tabbable areas, you must use the tabs JavaScript plugin.

Take that same HTML, but use .nav-pills instead:


<!-- Large pills -->
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-pills-large">
  <li role="presentation" class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
  <li role="presentation"><a href="#">Profile</a></li>
  <li role="presentation"><a href="#">Messages</a></li>
</ul>

<!-- Regular pills -->
<ul class="nav nav-pills">
  <li role="presentation" class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
  <li role="presentation"><a href="#">Profile</a></li>
  <li role="presentation"><a href="#">Messages</a></li>
</ul>

Pills are also vertically stackable. Just add .nav-stacked.

<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked">
  ...
</ul>

Easily make tabs or pills equal widths of their parent at screens wider than 768px with .nav-justified. On smaller screens, the nav links are stacked.

Justified navbar nav links are currently not supported.

Safari and responsive justified navs

As of v8.0, Safari exhibits a bug in which resizing your browser horizontally causes rendering errors in the justified nav that are cleared upon refreshing. This bug is also shown in the justified nav example.

Tabs toggle

First tab content

Third tab content

<ul class="nav nav-tabs nav-justified">
  ...
</ul>

<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-justified">
  ...
</ul>

For any nav component (tabs, pills, or list), add .disabled for gray links and no hover effects.

Link functionality not impacted

This class will only change the <a>'s appearance, not its functionality. Use custom JavaScript to disable links here.

<ul class="nav nav-pills">
  ...
  <li role="presentation"><a href="#">...</a></li>
  <li role="presentation" class="disabled"><a href="#">...</a></li>
  ...
</ul>

Add dropdown menus with a little extra HTML and the dropdowns JavaScript plugin.

Navbars are responsive meta components that serve as navigation headers for your application or site. They begin collapsed (and are toggleable) in mobile views and become horizontal as the available viewport width increases.

Justified navbar nav links are currently not supported.

Overflowing content

Since Bootstrap doesn't know how much space the content in your navbar needs, you might run into issues with content wrapping into a second row. To resolve this, you can:

  1. Reduce the amount or width of navbar items.
  2. Hide certain navbar items at certain screen sizes using responsive utility classes.
  3. Change the point at which your navbar switches between collapsed and horizontal mode. Customize the @grid-float-breakpoint variable or add your own media query.

Requires JavaScript plugin

If JavaScript is disabled and the viewport is narrow enough that the navbar collapses, it will be impossible to expand the navbar and view the content within the .navbar-collapse.

The responsive navbar requires the collapse plugin to be included in your version of Bootstrap.

Make navbars accessible

Be sure to use a <nav> element or, if using a more generic element such as a <div>, add a role="navigation" to every navbar to explicitly identify it as a landmark region for users of assistive technologies.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation">
   <div class="navbar-header">
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">Menu</button>
      <div class="active-on-mobile"> </div>
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#"><img src="..." border="0"></a>
   </div>
   <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav first-level">
         <li class="active"><a href="#">Link</a></li>
         <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
         <li>
            <a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".third-level-collapse-ex1"> 
            Dropdown <b class="caret"> </b>
            </a>
            <ul class="dropdown-menu collapse third-level third-level-collapse-ex1">
               <li><a>...</a></li>
            </ul>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
         <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
         <li>
            <a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".third-level-collapse-ex2"> 
            Dropdown <b class="caret"> </b>
            </a>
            <ul class="dropdown-menu collapse third-level third-level-collapse-ex2">
               <li><a>...</a></li>
            </ul>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <form class="navbar-form navbar-right" role="search">
         <div class="form-group">
            <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">
            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
         </div>
      </form>
   </div>
</nav>

Plugin dependency

The responsive navbar requires the collapse plugin to be included in your version of Bootstrap. Also visma-additional.js must be included.

Replace the navbar brand with your own image by swapping the text for an <img>. Since the .navbar-brand has its own padding and height, you may need to override some CSS depending on your image.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation">
  <div class="navbar-header">
    <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">Menu</button>
    <div class="active-on-mobile"> </div>
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#"><img src="..." border="0">...</span></a>
  </div>
</nav>

Place form content within .navbar-form for proper vertical alignment and collapsed behavior in narrow viewports. Use the alignment options to decide where it resides within the navbar content.

As a heads up, .navbar-form shares much of its code with .form-inline via mixin. Some form controls, like input groups, may require fixed widths to be show up properly within a navbar.

<form class="navbar-form navbar-left" role="search">
  <div class="form-group">
    <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
  </div>
</form>

Mobile device caveats

There are some caveats regarding using form controls within fixed elements on mobile devices.

Always add labels

Screen readers will have trouble with your forms if you don't include a label for every input. For these inline forms, you can hide the labels using the .sr-only class. There are further alternative methods of providing a label for assistive technologies, such as the aria-label, aria-labelledby or title attribute. If none of these is present, screen readers may resort to using the placeholder attribute, if present, but note that use of placeholder as a replacement for other labelling methods is not advised.

Add the .navbar-btn class to <button> elements not residing in a <form> to vertically center them in the navbar.

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default navbar-btn">Sign in</button>

Context-specific usage

Like the standard button classes, .navbar-btn can be used on <a> and <input> elements. However, neither .navbar-btn nor the standard button classes should be used on <a> elements within .navbar-nav.

Wrap strings of text in an element with .navbar-text, usually on a <p> tag for proper leading and color.

<p class="navbar-text">Signed in as Mark Otto</p>

For folks using standard links that are not within the regular navbar navigation component, use the .navbar-link class to add the proper colors for the default and inverse navbar options.

<p class="navbar-text navbar-right">Signed in as <a href="#" class="navbar-link">Mark Otto</a></p>

Align nav links, forms, buttons, or text, using the .navbar-left or .navbar-right utility classes. Both classes will add a CSS float in the specified direction. For example, to align nav links, put them in a separate <ul> with the respective utility class applied.

These classes are mixin-ed versions of .pull-left and .pull-right, but they're scoped to media queries for easier handling of navbar components across device sizes.

Right aligning multiple components

Navbars currently have a limitation with multiple .navbar-right classes. To properly space content, we use negative margin on the last .navbar-right element. When there are multiple elements using that class, these margins don't work as intended.

We'll revisit this when we can rewrite that component in v4.

Add .navbar-fixed-top and include a .container or .container-fluid to center and pad navbar content.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
  ...
</nav>

Body padding required

The fixed navbar will overlay your other content, unless you add padding to the top of the <body>. Try out your own values or use our snippet below. Tip: By default, the navbar is 50px high.

body { padding-top: 70px; }

Make sure to include this after the core Bootstrap CSS.

Add .navbar-fixed-bottom and include a .container or .container-fluid to center and pad navbar content.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-bottom" role="navigation">
  ...
</nav>

Body padding required

The fixed navbar will overlay your other content, unless you add padding to the bottom of the <body>. Try out your own values or use our snippet below. Tip: By default, the navbar is 50px high.

body { padding-bottom: 70px; }

Make sure to include this after the core Bootstrap CSS.

Create a full-width navbar that scrolls away with the page by adding .navbar-static-top and include a .container or .container-fluid to center and pad navbar content.

Unlike the .navbar-fixed-* classes, you do not need to change any padding on the body.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-static-top" role="navigation">
  ...
</nav>

To apply the styles for the second level of the navbar add .navbar-second-level class on the nav tag.

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-second-level" role="navigation">
   <div class="navbar-header">
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">Menu</button>
      <div class="active-on-mobile"> </div>
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#"><img src="..." border="0"></a>
   </div>   
   <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-9">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav nav-tabs first-level" id="navbar-tabs">
         <li class="active">
            <a data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".second-level-collapse-1" class="dropdown-toggle">Home <b class="caret"></b></a>
            <ul class="collapse second-level second-level-collapse-1">
               <li>...</li>

         <li>
            <a data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".second-level-collapse-2" class="dropdown-toggle">Link <b class="caret"></b></a>
            <ul class="collapse second-level second-level-collapse-2">
               <li>...</li>
            </ul>
         </li>	
         <li>
            <a data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".second-level-collapse-3" class="dropdown-toggle">Link <b class="caret"></b></a>
            <ul class="collapse second-level second-level-collapse-3">
               <li>...</li>
               <li>
                  <a data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".third-level-collapse" class="dropdown-toggle">Dropdown <b class="caret"></b></a>
                  <ul class="collapse third-level third-level-collapse dropdown-menu">

            </ul>
         </li>		 
      </ul>
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
         <li>
            <a data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".second-level-collapse-4" class="dropdown-toggle">Right link <b class="caret"></b></a>
            <ul class="collapse second-level second-level-collapse-4">

         </li>
      </ul>
   </div>    
</nav>

Indicate the current page's location within a navigational hierarchy.

Separators are automatically added in CSS through :before and content.

<ol class="breadcrumb">
   <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
   <li><a href="#">Library</a></li>
   <li class="active">Data</li>
</ol>

Provide pagination links for your site or app with the multi-page pagination component, or the simpler pager alternative.

Default pagination

Simple pagination inspired by Rdio, great for apps and search results. The large block is hard to miss, easily scalable, and provides large click areas.

<nav>
   <ul class="pagination">
      <li><a href="#" aria-label="Previous">Previous</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">1</a></li>
      ...
      <li><a href="#">5</a></li>
      <li><a href="#" aria-label="Next">Next</a></li>
   </ul>
</nav>

Disabled and active states

Links are customizable for different circumstances. Use .disabled for unclickable links and .active to indicate the current page.

<ul class="pagination">
  <li class="disabled"><a href="#" aria-label="Previous">Previous</a></li>
  <li class="active"><a href="#">1 <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a></li>
  ...
</ul>

You can optionally swap out active or disabled anchors for <span>, or omit the anchor in the case of the previous/next arrows, to remove click functionality while retaining intended styles.

<nav>
  <ul class="pagination">
    <li class="disabled">
      <span>
        <span aria-hidden="true">&laquo;</span>
      </span>
    </li>
    <li class="active">
      <span>1 <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></span>
    </li>
    ...
  </ul>
</nav>

Pager

Quick previous and next links for simple pagination implementations with light markup and styles. It's great for simple sites like blogs or magazines.

Default example

By default, the pager centers links.

<nav>
   <ul class="pager">
      <li><a href="#">Previous</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Next</a></li>
   </ul>
</nav>

Aligned links

Alternatively, you can align each link to the sides:

<nav>
   <ul class="pager">
      <li class="previous disabled"><a href="#"><span aria-hidden="true">&larr;</span> Older</a></li>
      <li class="next"><a href="#">Newer <span aria-hidden="true">&rarr;</span></a></li>
   </ul>
</nav>

Optional disabled state

Pager links also use the general .disabled utility class from the pagination.

<nav>
   <ul class="pager">
      <li class="previous disabled"><a href="#"><span aria-hidden="true">&larr;</span> Older</a></li>
      <li class="next"><a href="#">Newer <span aria-hidden="true">&rarr;</span></a></li>
   </ul>
</nav>

Example

Example heading New

Example heading New

Example heading New

Example heading New

Example heading New
Example heading New
<h3>Example heading <span class="label label-default">New</span></h3>

Available variations

Add any of the below mentioned modifier classes to change the appearance of a label.

Default Info Warning Danger
<span class="label label-default">Default</span>
<span class="label label-info">Info</span>
<span class="label label-warning">Warning</span>
<span class="label label-danger">Danger</span>

Have tons of labels?

Rendering problems can arise when you have dozens of inline labels within a narrow container, each containing its own inline-block element (like an icon). The way around this is setting display: inline-block;. For context and an example, see #13219.

Easily highlight new or unread items by adding a <span class="badge"> to links, Bootstrap navs, and more.

42 5 9
<span class="badge">42</span>
<span class="badge badge-warning">5</span>
<span class="badge badge-important">9</span>

Self collapsing

When there are no new or unread items, badges will simply collapse (via CSS's :empty selector) provided no content exists within.

Cross-browser compatibility

Badges won't self collapse in Internet Explorer 8 because it lacks support for the :empty selector.

Adapts to active nav states

Built-in styles are included for placing badges in active states in pill and list navigations.

VISMA: For the case when you need to add a badge on a button, add this class .btn-with-badge for a better alignment of the badge inside it.

<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked">
  <li class="active" role="presentation">
    <a href="#">
      <span class="badge pull-right">42</span>
      Home
    </a>
  </li>
  ...
</ul>

A lightweight, flexible component that can optionally extend the entire viewport to showcase key content on your site.

Hello, world!

This is a simple hero unit, a simple jumbotron-style component for calling extra attention to featured content or information.

Learn more

<div class="jumbotron">
  <h1>Hello, world!</h1>
  <p>...</p>
  <p><a class="btn btn-primary btn-lg" role="button">Learn more</a></p>
</div>

To make the jumbotron full width, and without rounded corners, place it outside all .containers and instead add a .container within.

<div class="jumbotron">
  <div class="container">
    ...
  </div>
</div>

A simple shell for an h1 to appropriately space out and segment sections of content on a page. It can utilize the h1's default small element, as well as most other components (with additional styles).

<div class="page-header">
  <h1>Example page header <small>Subtext for header</small></h1>
</div>

Extend Bootstrap's grid system with the thumbnail component to easily display grids of images, videos, text, and more.

If you're looking for Pinterest-like presentation of thumbnails of varying heights and/or widths, you'll need to use a third-party plugin such as Masonry, Isotope, or Salvattore.

Default example

By default, Bootstrap's thumbnails are designed to showcase linked images with minimal required markup.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-xs-6 col-md-3">
    <a href="#" class="thumbnail">
      <img data-src="holder.js/100%x180" alt="...">
    </a>
  </div>
  ...
</div>

Custom content

With a bit of extra markup, it's possible to add any kind of HTML content like headings, paragraphs, or buttons into thumbnails.

300x200

Thumbnail label

Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

Button Button

300x200

Thumbnail label

Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

  <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-4">
    <div class="thumbnail">
      <img data-src="holder.js/300x200" alt="...">
      <div class="caption">
        <h3>Thumbnail label</h3>
        <p>...</p>
        <p><a href="#" class="btn btn-primary" role="button">Button</a> <a href="#" class="btn btn-default" role="button">Button</a></p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Provide contextual feedback messages for typical user actions with the handful of available and flexible alert messages.

Examples

Wrap any text and an optional dismiss button in .alert and one of the four contextual classes (e.g., .alert-success) for basic alert messages.

No default class

Alerts don't have default classes, only base and modifier classes. A default gray alert doesn't make too much sense, so you're required to specify a type via contextual class. Choose from success, info, warning, or danger.

<div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
    <h1>...</h1>
    <p>...</p>
</div>

<div class="alert alert-info" role="alert">
    <h1>...</h1>
    <p>...</p>
</div>

<div class="alert alert-warning" role="alert">
    <h1>...</h1>
    <p>...</p>
</div>

<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">    
    <h1>...</h1>
    <p>...</p>
</div>

Dismissable alerts

Build on any alert by adding an optional .alert-dismissable and close button.

Requires JavaScript alert plugin

For fully functioning, dismissible alerts, you must use the alerts JavaScript plugin.

<div class="alert alert-warning alert-dismissable" role="alert">
   <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-hidden="true">
      <span>&times;</span>
   </button>
   <strong>Warning!</strong> Best check yo self, you're not looking too good.
</div>

Ensure proper behavior across all devices

Be sure to use the <button> element with the data-dismiss="alert" data attribute.

Wizards are used to give the user step-by-step guidance to achieve their goal. Wizards consist of a series of screens, each of which helps the user complete a step in the workflow.

Examples

Wrap all the items from your wizard in .wizard and each item to be a <li> </li>

<div class="wizard">
  <ul> 
    <li class="visited first"><a>Visited</a></li>
    <li class="active"><a>Active</a></li>
    <li class="normal"><a>Normal</a></li>
    <li class="disabled"><a>Disabled</a></li>
    <li class="visited"><a>Visited</a></li>
    <li class="red"><a>Red</a></li>
    <li class="orange"><a>Orange</a></li>
    <li class="normal last"><a></a></li>
  </ul> 
</div>

Provide up-to-date feedback on the progress of a workflow or action with simple yet flexible progress bars.

Cross-browser compatibility

Progress bars use CSS3 transitions and animations to achieve some of their effects. These features are not supported in Internet Explorer 9 and below or older versions of Firefox. Opera 12 does not support animations.

Basic example

Default progress bar.

75% Complete
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar no-counter" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100" style="width: 75%;">
    <span class="sr-only">75% Complete</span>
  </div>
</div>

With label

Remove the .sr-only class from within the progress bar to show a visible percentage. For low percentages, consider adding a min-width to ensure the label's text is fully visible.

75%
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="75" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="75" style="width: 75%;"> 75% </div>
</div>

Low percentages

0% Complete

0%

6% Complete

6%
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="0" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="0"> 0% </div>
</div>
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-bar" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="6" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="6" style="width:6%;"> 6% </div>
</div>

Contextual alternatives

Progress bars use some of the same button and alert classes for consistent styles.

Large progress bar:



Default progress bar:



Small progress bar:



Extra-small progress bar:

List groups are a flexible and powerful component for displaying not only simple lists of elements, but complex ones with custom content.

Basic example

The most basic list group is simply an unordered list with list items, and the proper classes. Build upon it with the options that follow, or your own CSS as needed.

  • Cras justo odio
  • Dapibus ac facilisis in
  • Morbi leo risus
  • Porta ac consectetur ac
  • Vestibulum at eros
<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Badges

Add the badges component to any list group item and it will automatically be positioned on the right.

  • 14 Cras justo odio
  • 2 Dapibus ac facilisis in
  • 1 Morbi leo risus
<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <span class="badge">14</span>
    Cras justo odio
  </li>
</ul>

Linked items

Linkify list group items by using anchor tags instead of list items (that also means a parent <div> instead of an <ul>). No need for individual parents around each element.

<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item active">
    Cras justo odio
  </a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

Disabled items

Add .disabled to a .list-group-item to gray it out to appear disabled.

<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item disabled">Cras justo odio</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

Contextual classes

Use contextual classes to style list items, default or linked. Also includes .active state.

  • Dapibus ac facilisis in
  • Cras sit amet nibh libero
  • Porta ac consectetur ac
  • Vestibulum at eros
<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-success">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-info">Cras sit amet nibh libero</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-warning">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-danger">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>
<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-success">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-info">Cras sit amet nibh libero</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-warning">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-danger">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

Custom content

Add nearly any HTML within, even for linked list groups like the one below.

<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item active">
    <h4 class="list-group-item-heading">List group item heading</h4>
    <p class="list-group-item-text">...</p>
  </a>
</div>

While not always necessary, sometimes you need to put your DOM in a box. For those situations, try the panel component.

Basic example

By default, all the .panel does is apply some basic border and padding to contain some content.

Basic panel example
<div class="panel panel-default">
  <div class="panel-body">
    Basic panel example
  </div>
</div>

Panel with heading

Easily add a heading container to your panel with .panel-heading. You may also include any <h1>-<h6> with a .panel-title class to add a pre-styled heading.

For proper link coloring, be sure to place links in headings within .panel-title.

Panel heading without title
Panel content

Panel title

Panel content
<div class="panel panel-default">
  <div class="panel-heading">Panel heading without title</div>
  <div class="panel-body">
    Panel content
  </div>
</div>

<div class="panel panel-default">
  <div class="panel-heading">
    <h3 class="panel-title">Panel title</h3>
  </div>
  <div class="panel-body">
    Panel content
  </div>
</div>

Wrap buttons or secondary text in .panel-footer. Note that panel footers do not inherit colors and borders when using contextual variations as they are not meant to be in the foreground.

Panel header
Panel content
<div class="panel panel-default">
  <div class="panel-body">
    Panel content
  </div>
  <div class="panel-footer">Panel footer</div>
</div>

With tables

Add any non-bordered .table within a panel for a seamless design. If there is a .panel-body, we add an extra border to the top of the table for separation.

Panel heading

Some default panel content here. Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Aenean lacinia bibendum nulla sed consectetur. Aenean eu leo quam. Pellentesque ornare sem lacinia quam venenatis vestibulum. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

<div class="panel panel-default">

  <div class="panel-body">

  </div>

  Table
  <table class="table">

  </table>
</div>

If there is no panel body, the component moves from panel header to table without interruption.

Easily include full-width list groups within any panel.

Default well

Use the well as a simple effect on an element to give it an inset effect.

Look, I'm in a well!
<div class="well">...</div>

Optional classes

Control padding and rounded corners with two optional modifier classes.

Look, I'm in a large well!
<div class="well well-lg">...</div>
Look, I'm in a small well!
<div class="well well-sm">...</div>
