Why is the Twitter Bootstrap "fixed" layout NOT fixed?
- by leonel
The Twitter Bootstrap site reads as follows:
The default and simple 940px-wide, centered layout for just about any
website or page provided by a single <div class="container">.
Quote from http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/scaffolding.html#layouts
That's exactly what I have in my HTML but when I inspect the element, I see this CSS apply to it:
.container, .navbar-fixed-top .container, .navbar-fixed-bottom .container {
width: 1170px;
}
By the way, if I override that CSS rule by adding...
div.container{
width:940px;
}
Then the elements inside the div.container are wider than the div.container itself and look out of place.
So, why is the Twitter Bootstrap "fixed" layout NOT fixed? and how can I make it fixed?
