Thanks for the reply. &nbsp;So do you think the fixed width should be 1170? &nbsp;ie. It's a problem to use 1000px width?

Hi<br />
<br />
I want to use Twitter Bootstrap as the base CSS for building a site that needs to be 1000px max width. &nbsp;I believe the default Bootstrap layout width is 1170px.<br />
<br />
What modifications do I need to make in order to specify the 1000px width and also still use the fluid columns with class=&quot;span4&quot; etc?<br />
<br />
Many thanks!

Twitter Bootstrap responsive layout with 1000px max width

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.

Web Development

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.
