@hyfydistro
@bradtaniguchi What do you mean by a 'framework'? I think mostly from scratch. I tried learning from a video online. I also be CSS and HTML only. This is what I've got so far... https://codepen.io/UnorthodoxThing/pen/oENvEX

@UnorthodoxThing Well if you mean you want to make a dropdown with checkboxes in it I think you will need to create it from scratch using JS and css
If you don't or cant use JS for this, then you probably have to rely more on what html provides ( they have a multiselect option for select)
i'm not sure if it works because of the form-inline class but i could've swore i've tried that before...

@bradtaniguchi
If the form tag scares you, you can always change it to something else.

i think it's just that i'm confusing it with the input tag

@khaduch Wow that was some great feedback and things I can look up and read up on more. I kinda feel I rushed in to making the page and maybe bit off more than I can chew without seeking out more training first but your feedback did a great job of highlighting some of the misses (I took notes down to look up your suggestions/"how to do...")that will help me grow and that is what I needed! Thanks!!!

hey folks, currently working on the random quote generator and having a lot of trouble with the twitter API. I've been trying to decipher Twitter's documentation with no luck - any guidance anyone could provide?
trying to figure out how to make the form and the "search wikipedia" button centered thru bootstrap
i know it can be done with css with margins but i'm trying to learn the bootstrap way for responsive content
Greg Engler
@gmengler
hmmm I think I've dealt with something like that before, lemme check
does codepen automatically "run" your code when you make an edit or do you have to click something?

@JoEeeezy_twitter
it usually autoruns but i believe theres an option in settings to turn that off (in case you're using apis and dont' want it calling everytime you edit)

@AbrahamAnakAgung
you could turn it off in setting -> behavior -> auto updating preview

@gmengler
@JoEeeezy_twitter definitely struggling to get that centered

@gmengler even though it seems so straightforward in the docs.. the bootstrap grid confuses me when i start using it
nice - you might be able to get it working with bootstrap by making the columns smaller, but not sure
it's been a while since I was really using bootstrap
JoEezy
@JoEeeezy_twitter
same here ... i kind of rushed through the bootstrap tutorials to get to javascript :smile:

@khaduch
@JoEeeezy_twitter - looks like you are using bootstrap 4 - it uses flexbox, and there is a class that does the center alignment - justify-content-center

@khaduch I've used display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;
