Bootstrap: How to enable scroll bars?

Question

I use Twitter Bootstrap in one of my projects, but I have the problem that my content goes out of the browser view. Normally you see the scrollbar on the right side of the screen, but not in my case. I searched in bootstrap css file after overflow: hidden; or something like that and deleted it, but that didn't solve the problem.

Does someone know how to enable scrollbar in bootstrap css? (without bootstrap css the bars are showed)

edit:

I have find out that the problem the navbar-fixed in the black navbar which you can add. Without postition: fixed it works fine.

Answer 1

Make sure all the <div> from the navbar are closed. If not, the fixed property is inherited by the descending tags and the scroll bars disappears.

Answer 2

I found removing the "position: fixed" for the navbar resolved this problem for me:

.navbar-fixed-top, .navbar-fixed-bottom {
    /*position: fixed;*/
    right: 0;
    left: 0;
    z-index: 1030;
    margin-bottom: 0;
}
