grid

I'm still new with Twitter Bootstrap and the whole grid framework, so please bear with me if this seems like a very noobish question.

But here is what I have so far in a jsFiddle.

What I am trying to achieve is to place 2 small boxes after that last big red box in the white space. I've done some research and I read that it required nesting a row inside a row and then placing a column. But that seemed to apply to a non-fluid application of the spans, i.e fixed widths. I am however measuring those boxes in percentages and am quite unsure as to how to proceed with nesting those rows. Any help?

Can you nest rows in Bootstrap?

You can easily nest grids using bootstrap by adding additional rows.

Is nested columns possible with Bootstrap grid system?

You can nest columns once you have a container, row, and column set up. To do this, add a new row <div> within the parent column's code, then add your nested columns. It will function as if the area inside the new row is its own grid system.

What is XS SM MD lg in Bootstrap?

The Bootstrap 3 grid system has four tiers of classes: xs (phones), sm (tablets), md (desktops), and lg (larger desktops). You can use nearly any combination of these classes to create more dynamic and flexible layouts.

What is Col SM 4 in Bootstrap?

col-sm-4 are available for quickly making grid layouts. Columns create gutters (gaps between column content) via padding. That padding is offset in rows for the first and last column via negative margin on .

There are a few ways you could do this. One is to nest them as such: (http://jsfiddle.net/rdTfe/)

<div class="container-fluid">
  <div class="row-fluid">
    <div class="span12">
       Red area here.
       <div class="row-fluid">
          <div class="span6">
            Small box
          </div>
          <div class="span6">
            Small box
          </div>
       </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

However, this will extend the red container itself. So unless I misunderstand what you want to do, you don't really need to nest them. (http://jsfiddle.net/rdTfe/1/)

<div class="container-fluid">
  <div class="row-fluid">
    <div class="span12">
       Red area here.
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row-fluid">
    <div class="span6">
      Small box
    </div>
    <div class="span6">
      Small box
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Nesting them this way makes sure the left and right edges of all your red box and other smaller boxes line up vertically.

Update for Bootstrap 3

The above examples can be written as such: http://jsfiddle.net/9wQ2M/10/

  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
       Red area here.
      <div class="col-md-6">
        Small box
      </div>
      <div class="col-md-6">
        Small box
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>

And without nesting... http://jsfiddle.net/55z7p/3/

  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
       Red area here.
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-6">
      Small box
    </div>
    <div class="col-md-6">
      Small box
    </div>
  </div>
