Bootstrap Button Sizes
Use the .btn-lg
class for large buttons or .btn-sm
class for small buttons:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg">Large</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Default</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Small</button>
Bootstrap Active/Disabled Buttons
A button can be set to an active (appear pressed) or a disabled (unclickable) state:
The class .active
makes a button appear pressed, and the disabled
the attribute makes a button unclickable. Note that <a> elements do not support the disabled attribute and must therefore use the .disabled
class to make it visually appear disabled.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary active">Active Primary</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" disabled>Disabled Primary</button>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary disabled">Disabled Link</a>
Bootstrap Spinner Buttons
You can also add “spinners” to a button
