Alerts

Provide contextual feedback messages for typical user actions with the handful of available and flexible alert messages.

Examples

Alerts are available for any length of text, as well as an optional dismiss button. For proper styling, use one of the eight required contextual classes (e.g., .alert-success). For inline dismissal, use the alerts jQuery plugin.

This is a primary alert—check it out!

This is a info alert—check it out!

This is a success alert—check it out!

This is a danger alert—check it out!

This is a warning alert—check it out!

This is a default alert—check it out!

<div class="alert alert-primary" role="alert">
  This is a primary alert—check it out!
</div>
<div class="alert alert-info" role="alert">
  This is a info alert—check it out!
</div>
<div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">

</div>
<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">

</div>
<div class="alert alert-default" role="alert">

</div>

</div>

Dismissing

Using the alert JavaScript plugin, it’s possible to dismiss any alert inline. Here’s how:

Be sure you’ve loaded the alert plugin, or the compiled Bootstrap JavaScript.
Add a dismiss button and the .alert-dismissible class, which adds extra padding to the right of the alert and positions the .close button.
On the dismiss button, add the data-dismiss="alert" attribute, which triggers the JavaScript functionality. Be sure to use the <button> element with it for proper behavior across all devices.
To animate alerts when dismissing them, be sure to add the .fade and .show classes.

You can see this in action with a live demo:

Holy guacamole! You should check in on some of those fields below.

<div class="alert alert-warning alert-dismissible fade show" role="alert">
  <strong>Holy guacamole!</strong> You should check in on some of those fields below.
  <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
    <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
  </button>
</div>
