How can i apply "Bootstrap" on my website?Which works well in every device.
Thanks..
There's a bit more to bootstrap than just dropping the files in (So you should spend a bit of time learning the basics), but have a look at this section to get your basic html:
http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#template
This will link the bootstrap javascript and css. Be sure to add any of your own javascript/css as well.
Then have a look at the overview and grid system at: http://getbootstrap.com/css/
This is how you choose the structure of your site using html as JustLearning mentioned. You'll probably be just putting your images in 1 row spanned across 4 columns.
The page looks bootstrapped to me but it depends on whether you meant you want your images to turn into links or made smaller into icons as that will be a new question. Responsive design is about the page fitting into the device and your page appears to fit although the images have been resized. Plus I don't see any MVC or C# or ASP.net so this is straight forward as it looks like you just have a basic HTML5 site. Here is a good link to get you started: http://docs.asp.net/en/latest/client-side/bootstrap.html

I'm building a website but I have an issue that I can't fix. I have multiple card with information inside that are in columns and each 4 columns, they switch to another row. The problem is that the number of card can change and it's not always divisible by 4. So at the end, I can have less than 4 columns in a row. And when I have les than 4 columns in a row, the displaying is not the same that when I have 4 columns in a row. I know that it's doing that because I use col-sm bootstrap class. It's the only way that I found that is simply responsive. I also tried to use col-sm-3 but the problem is that the website is no more responsive. (See screenshots) By the ways, I use razor views so I can write C# and HTML.
What the displaying do when I use col-sm: Display col-sm
The displaying that I want: Display col-sm-3
The problem of the col-sm-3: Problem of col-sm-3
This is the code of the displaying of my card:
.vehicule-card {
border-radius: 10px;
border: solid 4px #2F3136;
background-color: #333333;
}
.vehicule-cardbody {
height: 5em;
}
.vehicule-name {
background-color: #392A49;
color: #B8BABD;
width: 10em;
margin: auto;
padding: 3px;
border-radius: 10px;
border: solid 4px #2F3136;
}
.vehicule-image {
border-radius: 10px;
border: solid 4px #2F3136;
}
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="headline">VOITURES COMPACTS</div>
<div class="row">
#foreach (var car in Model.cars)
{
if (counter != 0 && counter % 4 == 0)
{
#:</div>
#:<div class="row">
}
<div class="col-sm-3">
<div class="card p-3 m-2 box-shadow vehicule-card">
<img class="card-img-top vehicule-image" src="#car.ImgPath" alt="Card image cap">
<div class="card-body vehicule-cardbody">
<h2 class="vehicule-name">#car.Name</h2>
</div>
</div>
</div>
counter++;
}
</div>
</div>
Don't try running the code, it will not work because it's a razor view.
Thanks
You should be able to get the layout you want using Bootstrap’s grid system.
Your image for the layout you want is larger than what Bootstrap-4 provides with the container-xl (Bootstap-5 has a container-xxl), but you can create your own xxl container (my example has the max width at 1440px, but you can change that).

My example code is in plain HTML, but you should be able to reverse it to work with Razor.
I want to make the div a standard size of 330px. But when I do it, the elements in the div will get screwed up.
<div class="col-md-3 m-wthree" style="height:330px;">
<div class="col-m">
<a href="#" data-toggle="modal" data-target="##item.id" class="offer-img">
<img src="#item.productImage" class="img-responsive" alt="" style="width:auto;height:124px;">
<div class="offer"><p><span>Offer</span></p></div>
</a>
<div class="mid-1">
<div class="women">
<h6>#item.productName</h6>
</div>
<div class="mid-2">
<p><label>$#item.productOriginalPrice</label><em class="item_price">$#item.productCurrentPrice</em></p>
<div class="clearfix"></div>
</div>
<div class="add">

I am converting an web app from HTML with bootstrap to ASP.Net (C#) MVC with Bootstrap. I've moved the index file into the View, I've added to theme (dashboard.css) to the Content directory, I've added my images to the images directory, and I've updated the bundle config file.
When I run the HTML page in Firefox, I get the correct layout with 12 items in a row. When I run it with ASP.Net MVC, I only get 4 items in the row. Everything is very big compared to straight HTML. I am trying to get the 12 items in the row like HTML. This is my first ASP.Net MVC app. Any advice on where I should look next? Here is my View file:

There is no difference in HTML with bootstrap and MVC with Bootstrap so far you are using the same version of Bootstrap. I have converted many commercial HTML Bootstrap themes into MVC Bootstrap themes and it is pretty straight forward.
First of all you are missing a closing body tag. It could be an issue.
Secondly, do not use MVC Bundles at the moment. Copy all your existing HTML in views and make sure all scripts and CSS is referenced to right path. Write a simple action method that just return the view. Once you get the desired output, you are good to modify HTML with dynamic elements.
Thirdly, make sure there is no padding or margin applied to the div where you are using the following code.
col-sm-9 col-sm-offset-3
In last, use developer tools available in your browser to find out the exact output of HTML page. You can always edit the HTML and get the real time results in many modern browsers.
I am using the below html & css to create and align textboxes. It does the job perfectly, but anytime I Try to access the text from my C# code behind by using txtfield1.Text I get a compile error of txtfield1 does not exist in the current context.
This is my css
.left
{
padding:2px;
width: 30%;
float: left;
text-align: right;
}
.right
{
padding:2px;
width: 60%;
margin-left: 10px;
float:left;
}
.text1
{
width: 70px;
}
.text2
{
width: 150px;
}
and this is my html markup
<div>
<div class="left">Option One:</div>
<div class="right"><input class="txtfield1" type="text" runat="server"/></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="left">Option Two:</div>
<div class="right"><input class="text2" type="text" runat="server"/></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="left">Option Three:</div>
<div class="right"><input class="text2" type="text" runat="server"/></div>
</div>
See your html carefully.
<div class="right"><input class="txtfield1" id="txtfieldid1" type="text" runat="server"/></div>
You need to assign an id then you can access the variable at c# code behind
txtfieldid1.text
You are not using txtfield1.That's why you get compile error.
I am using bootstrap by default textbox taking full width of column and I want to put search icon at the end to textbox.
My code is like this:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="form-group col-lg-4">
<label class="control-label">Name</label>
<input id="txtName" class="form-control input-sm" />
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4"></div>
<div class="col-lg-4"></div>
</div>
</div>
I don't want to use input group.
Please suggest an alternate way or alternate html with css.
Here are three different ways to do it:
Here's a working Demo in Fiddle Of All Three
Validation:
You can use native bootstrap validation states (No Custom CSS!):
<div class="form-group has-feedback">
<label class="control-label" for="inputSuccess2">Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="inputSuccess2"/>
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search form-control-feedback"></span>
</div>

Input Group:
You can use the .input-group class like this:
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control"/>
<span class="input-group-addon">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</span>
</div>
For a full discussion, see my answer to adding Twitter Bootstrap icon to Input box
Unstyled Input Group:
You can still use .input-group for positioning but just override the default styling to make the two elements appear separate.
Use a normal input group but add the class input-group-unstyled:
<div class="input-group input-group-unstyled">
<input type="text" class="form-control" />
<span class="input-group-addon">
<i class="fa fa-search"></i>
</span>
</div>
Then change the styling with the following css:
.input-group.input-group-unstyled input.form-control {
-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
-moz-border-radius: 4px;
border-radius: 4px;
}
.input-group-unstyled .input-group-addon {
border-radius: 4px;
border: 0px;
background-color: transparent;
}
Also, these solutions work for any input size
Adding a class with a width of 90% to your input element and adding the following input-icon class to your span would achieve what you want I think.
.input { width: 90%; }
.input-icon {
display: inline-block;
height: 22px;
width: 22px;
line-height: 22px;
text-align: center;
color: #000;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
margin-left: 4px;
}
EDIT
Per dan's suggestion, it would not be wise to use .input as the class name, some more specific would be advised. I was simply using .input as a generic placeholder for your css
<input type="text" name="whatever" id="funkystyling" />
Here's the CSS for the image on the left:
#funkystyling {
background: white url(/path/to/icon.png) left no-repeat;
padding-left: 17px;
}
And here's the CSS for the image on the right:
#funkystyling {
background: white url(/path/to/icon.png) right no-repeat;
padding-right: 17px;
}
I liked #KyleMit's answer on how to make an unstyled input group, but in my case, I only wanted the right side unstyled - I still wanted to use an input-group-addon on the left side and have it look like normal bootstrap. So, I did this:
css
.input-group.input-group-unstyled-right input.form-control {
border-top-right-radius: 4px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 4px;
}
.input-group-unstyled-right .input-group-addon.input-group-addon-unstyled {
border-radius: 4px;
border: 0px;
background-color: transparent;
}
html
<div class="input-group input-group-unstyled-right">
<span class="input-group-addon">
<i class="fa fa-envelope-o"></i>
</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
<span class="input-group-addon input-group-addon-unstyled">
<i class="fa fa-check"></i>
</span>
</div>
You can do it in pure CSS using the :after pseudo-element and getting creative with the margins.
Here's an example, using Font Awesome for the search icon:
.search-box-container input {
padding: 5px 20px 5px 5px;
}
.search-box-container:after {
content: "\f002";
font-family: FontAwesome;
margin-left: -25px;
margin-right: 25px;
}
<!-- font awesome -->
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="search-box-container">
<input type="text" placeholder="Search..." />
</div>
