Bootstrap - Panels

This chapter will discuss about Bootstrap panels. Panel components are used when you want to put your DOM component in a box. To get a basic panel, just add class .panel to the <div> element. Also add class .panel-default to this element as shown in the following example −

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

Panel with Heading

There are two ways to add panel heading −

• Use .panel-heading class to easily add a heading container to your panel.
• Use any <h1>-<h6> with a .panel-title class to add a pre-styled heading.

The following example demonstrates both the ways −

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      Panel heading without title
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      Panel content
   </div>
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">
         Panel With title
      </h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      Panel content
   </div>
</div>

Panel with Footer

You can add footers to panels, by wrapping buttons or secondary text in a <div> containing class .panel-footer. The following example demonstrates this.

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-footer">Panel footer</div>
</div>

Panel footers do not inherit colors and borders when using contextual variations as they are not meant to be in the foreground.

Panel Contextual Alternatives

Use contextual state classes such as, panel-primary, panel-success, panel-info, panel-warning, panel-danger, to make a panel more meaningful to a particular context.

<div class = "panel panel-primary">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-success">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-info">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-warning">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-danger">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
</div>

Panel with Tables

To get a non-bordered table within a panel, use the class .table within the panel. Suppose there is a <div> containing .panel-body, we add an extra border to the top of the table for separation. If there is no <div> containing .panel-body, then the component moves from panel header to table without interruption.
The following example demonstrates this −

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-heading">
      <h3 class = "panel-title">Panel title</h3>
   </div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      This is a Basic panel
   </div>
   
   <table class = "table">
      <tr>
         <th>Product</th>
         <th>Price </th>
      </tr>
      
      <tr>
         <td>Product A</td>
         <td>200</td>
      </tr>
      
      <tr>
         <td>Product B</td>
         <td>400</td>
      </tr>
   </table>
   
</div>

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class = "panel-heading">Panel Heading</div>
   
   <table class = "table">
      <tr>
         <th>Product</th>
         <th>Price </th>
      </tr>
      
      <tr>
         <td>Product A</td>
         <td>200</td>
      </tr>
      
      <tr>
         <td>Product B</td>
         <td>400</td>
      </tr>
   </table>
   
</div>

Panel with List groups

You can include list groups within any panel. Create a panel by adding class .panel to the <div> element. Also add class .panel-default to this element. Now within this panel include your list groups. You can learn to create a list group from chapter List Groups.

<div class = "panel panel-default">
   <div class ="panel-heading">Panel heading</div>
   
   <div class = "panel-body">
      <p>This is a Basic panel content. This is a Basic panel content.
         This is a Basic panel content. This is a Basic panel content.
         This is a Basic panel content. This is a Basic panel content.
         This is a Basic panel content.</p>
   </div>
   
   <ul class = "list-group">
      <li class = "list-group-item">Free Domain Name Registration</li>
      <li class = "list-group-item">Free Window Space hosting</li>
      <li class = "list-group-item">Number of Images</li>
      <li class = "list-group-item">24*7 support</li>
      <li class = "list-group-item">Renewal cost per year</li>
   </ul>

</div>
