using container-fluid within bootstrap cause horizontal scrollbar

Solution 1:

container-fluid was originally taken out of Bootstrap 3.0, but added back in 3.1.1

To fix this, you can either:

1. Use the newer version of Bootstrap style sheet

   Demo with New Style Sheet in Fiddle

2. Or add in the class yourself

   The .row adds a 15px margin to the left and right. Since .container-fluid fills up 100% of the screen width, the extra margin space causes overflow issues.

   To fix this, you need to add padding to .container-fluid class

   .container-fluid {
       padding-right: 15px;
       padding-left: 15px;
       margin-right: auto;
       margin-left: auto;
   }

Solution 2:

I also faced this problem. I don't know the cause of the problem. It maybe a bug from Twitter Bootstrap. Now, I have to manually add the overflow-x:hidden to my body tag:

body { 
   overflow-x: hidden;
}
