Right Border of the Addthis Counter Missing with Twitter's Bootstrap 3

Right border of the AddThis counter missing with Twitter's Bootstrap 3

Twitter's Bootstrap 3 use a CSS's universal selector to set box-sizing (see: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box-sizing) to border-box. This will be save cause support for IE7 has been dropped. This selector breaks the AddThis counter.

The counter is set by: <a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>.

Solution:
Reset the box-sizing for the .addthis_counter class. Add the following code after your bootstrap css:

 .addthis_counter
{
  -webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
     -moz-box-sizing: content-box;
      box-sizing: content-box;
}

Or Less:

.addthis_counter,
.addthis_counter * { .box-sizing(content-box); }

Twitter's Bootstrap 3 with ShareThis widget

Wrap your code (span tags) in a container and reset css box-sizing property to content-box of this spans (see also: Right border of the AddThis counter missing with Twitter's Bootstrap 3):

your html:

<div id="sharethis">    
  <span class='st_sharethis_hcount' displayText='ShareThis'></span>
  <span class='st_facebook_hcount' displayText='Facebook'></span>
  <span class='st_twitter_hcount' displayText='Tweet'></span>
  <span class='st_linkedin_hcount' displayText='LinkedIn'></span>
  <span class='st_pinterest_hcount' displayText='Pinterest'></span>
  <span class='st_email_hcount' displayText='Email'></span>
</div>

css (add after the Bootstrap CSS):

#sharethis span
{
  -webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: content-box;
  box-sizing: content-box;
}

Chosen.js styling not conforming to Bootstrap3 styles

Actually, there is someone who created a Bootstrap 3.0 CSS theme for Chosen.

Some screens:

The theme is available in this Github issue Use Gist below.

Edit

I've created a Fiddle using the same HTML as the official Chosen documentation page with the Bootstrap theme applied. (added form-control to all selects and removed style="width:350px;")

And also, I'll be maintaining the theme in this gist: https://gist.github.com/koenpunt/6424137

Why did Bootstrap 3 switch to box-sizing: border-box?

The release notes tell you: (http://blog.getbootstrap.com/2013/08/19/bootstrap-3-released/)

Better box model by default. Everything in Bootstrap gets box-sizing: border-box, making for easier sizing options and an enhanced grid system.

Personally I think most benefits go to the grid system. In Twitter's Bootstrap all grids are fluid. Columns are defined as percentage of the total width. But the gutter have a fixed width in pixels. By default a padding of 15px on both side of the column. The combination of width in pixels and percentage could be complex. With border-box this calculating is easy because the border-box value (as opposed to the content-box default) makes the final rendered box the declared width, and any border and padding cut inside the box.

Updating Bootstrap to version 3 - what do I have to do?

1. Download the latest version from http://getbootstrap.com/ OR Replace the css and js files with the newest versions or use CDN (http://www.bootstrapcdn.com/)

2. Migrate your html, yes indeed read http://bootply.com/bootstrap-3-migration-guide. You could try http://twitterbootstrapmigrator.w3masters.nl/ or http://code.divshot.com/bootstrap3_upgrader/ (provide checklist too)

   • Images not responsive by default in Twitter Bootstrap 3?
   • Styling Twitter's Bootstrap 3.x Buttons
   • Change navbar color in Twitter Bootstrap 3

3. remove html5shiv cause TB drops support for IE7 and Firefox 3.x add html5shiv.js to add support of HTML5 elements to IE8

4. add respond.js (https://github.com/scottjehl/Respond) for media query support in IE. NOTE this won't work with CDN, see: IE8 issue with Twitter Bootstrap 3

5. If you use Glyphicons, you will have to add them from http://glyphicons.getbootstrap.com/ ( icons have been moved to a separate repository.) Glyphicons are back since RC2 (180 glyphs in font format from the Glyphicon Halflings set)

6. If you use the Javascript Typeahead component, you will have to integrate https://github.com/twitter/typeahead.js/ (cause typeahead javascript is dropped) See also: Typeahead problems with Bootstrap 3.0 RC1 Or use the "old" plugin: https://github.com/bassjobsen/Bootstrap-3-Typeahead, see also: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18615964/ajax-call-in-bootstrap-3-0-typeahead/18620473

7. Switch to the latest version of jQuery 1.x (don't use the 2.x version cause jQuery 2.x don't support IE8)

8. If you use third party widgets which adds or insert html to your code (like addthis.com, sharethis.com and Google maps), create a wrapper for the box-sizing, see: Right border of the AddThis counter missing with Twitter's Bootstrap 3
