Opening the door to IE6 support would be a good thing, since sadly it still represents nearly 10% of the general web user audience. That said, I see a lot of pseudo-selectors in the Bootstrap CSS that will never work in IE6, so it'd probably be a big project... Hopefully within a year it'll finally die. Hopefully.

I disagree with adding IE6 support. According to IE6 countdown (http://www.ie6countdown.com/) 9.7% of the world is using IE6. Only 2.4% of the population use IE6 in the UK.....so I don't think it's really worth adding support. The 2% of people need to upgrade (indeed, most of it down to corporate decisions) Adding support for IE6 will only bloat the framework.

@Flukey: Fair enough. Whether a site can ignore IE6 depends a lot on the site in question. General-purpose sites aimed primarily at home users in the English-speaking world mostly can. Sites aimed at web developers, and to large degree developers in general, can. Sites aimed at corporate users in the English-speaking world cannot, nor ones looking to get wide use in latin america or east asia -- not without losing out on a lot of revenue.
But I can totally see the Bootstrap folks saying "Look, we understand a lot of you still need IE6 support, but we're just not going to go there for this project. If you do need it, you'll need to look elsewhere." And given their CSS, I think that's what they're likely to do.
Perhaps if someone really needs it but also really likes Bootstrap, they can fork it.

The primary motivation is to simplify the CSS required for the grid. A convenient accident is that the grid works in IE6. Broken layout is more of a problem than an extra bit of border here and there.

Here's an example of this grid code (adds an element of flexibility too - resize the browser window) - http://jsfiddle.net/necolas/54YUQ/

Yep we're definitely considering this as a simplification like @necolas said. No need to worry about ie6 for now :)
from bootstrap.
We've refactored the grid based on these suggestions in the upcoming 1.1.1 branch. Closing this out as we simplify the code, add IE6 support (floated columns need display: inline; and the .row needs a set width).
from bootstrap.
You don't need a set width on .row
, just margin: 0 -20px; *zoom:1
.
from bootstrap.
@necolas - out of sheer curiosity. Why have you changed the declaration name from 'columns' to 'column'?
from bootstrap.
@Flukey the demo has a mixture of the class names, so I switched them all to .column
for the sake of consistency: row
and column
.

oh my god. 30% ie6 user need this tools
