How to display a list inline using Twitter s Bootstrap

Question

I want to display a list inline using Bootstrap   Is there a class I can add from Bootstrap to achieve this

According to Bootstrap documentation of 2.3.2 and 3, the class should be defined like this:

Bootstrap 2.3.2

<ul class="inline">
  <li>...</li>
</ul>

Bootstrap 3

<ul class="list-inline">
  <li>...</li>
</ul>

According to the Bootstrap documentation  you need to add the class  inline  to your list  like this    lt ul class  inline  gt       lt li gt Item one lt  li gt       lt li gt Item two lt  li gt       lt li gt Item three lt  li gt   lt  ul gt    However  this does not work as there seems to be some CSS missing in the Bootstrap CSS file referring to the class  inline   So additionally  add the following lines to your CSS file to make it work   ul inline  gt  li  ol inline  gt  li       display  inline-block      padding-right  5px      padding-left  5px

This solution works using Bootstrap v2  however in TBS3 the class INLINE   I haven t figured out what is the equivalent class  if there is one  in TBS3   This gentleman had a pretty good article of the differences between v2 and v3   http   mattduchek com differences-between-bootstrap-v2-3-and-v3-0   EDIT - use CSS to target the li elements to solve  your problem as below        display  inline-block      In my situation I was targeting the UL  instead of the LI      nav ul li   display  inline-block

Inline is not actually the inline we maybe require - i e  display inline  Bootstrap inline as far as I observer is more of a horizontal orientation  To display the list inline with other elements then we do need  display  inline  added to the UL   lt ul class  unstyled inline  style  display inline  gt    NB   Add to stylesheet

While TheBrent s answer is true in general  it does not answer the question of how to do it in the official bootstrap way  The markup for bootstrap is simple    lt ul class  inline  gt     lt li gt 1 lt  li gt     lt li gt 2 lt  li gt     lt li gt 3 lt  li gt   lt  ul gt    Source   http   jsfiddle net MgcDU 4602
