The carousel component is generally not compliant with accessibility standards. If you need to be compliant, please consider other options for presenting your content.
Bootstrap exclusively uses CSS3 for its animations, but Internet Explorer 8 & 9 don't support the necessary CSS properties. Thus, there are no slide transition animations when using these browsers. We have intentionally decided not to include jQuery-based fallbacks for the transitions.
The .active
class needs to be added to one of the slides. Otherwise, the carousel will not be visible.
The .glyphicon .glyphicon-chevron-left
and .glyphicon .glyphicon-chevron-right
classes are not necessarily needed for the controls. Bootstrap provides .icon-prev
and .icon-next
as plain unicode alternatives.
Add captions to your slides easily with the .carousel-caption
element within any .item
. Place just about any optional HTML within there and it will be automatically aligned and formatted.
<div class="item">
<img src="..." alt="...">
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h3>...</h3>
<p>...</p>
