I am using twitter-bootstrap for styling. I have login the form and i am trying to get the form at the center of page. Most of the suggestions here on stackoverflow suggesting to put elements inside container
class and thats what i am doing.
Requirement is The login form needs to have some background color and it needs to be at the center of the form. I have created a CSS class .login-dialog
and applied that on div
which is a wrapper around form
However there are issues:
-The whole row is getting background color
-The form and its controls are not aligning at the center
-There is lot of extra background on the right
(please see the picture below)
I can certainly fix this using table
but i dont want to use any fix width solution. Can someone please help me on this

<div class="row ng-hide" ng-show="model.errorMessage">

This is because the
.login-dialog
div does not have a specified bootstrap col class so it stretches to the width of the parent container, the.row
.You’ll need to use an offset class (
col-sm-offset-3
or the likes) to move the form more to the centerThis should be fixed once your have the form width set correctly and centered how you want.
See my quick snippet:
The problem is
.login-dialog
is a block element ( stretches to full width ). So the blue color spans to full width.But, In the form control you have added a class
.col-md-1
and.col-md-3
classes. When make the form elements to span width of 4 (1+3) in 12 grids. so, remaining 8 grids left unused.Now all you need to do is, add class
col-md-4 col-md-offset-4
inlogin-dialog
. This will make form element to stay in center. Now change allcol-md-1
in label tocol-md-4
andcol-md-3
in form-control tocol-md-8
.If you still confused, have a look at this, http://output.jsbin.com/lirilojeti
Hope it helps.
Thanks!
