Bsie

Overview

The "bsie" project is an innovative solution designed specifically for supporting Bootstrap on Internet Explorer 6 (IE6). Given that IE6 is an outdated browser with numerous limitations, this library aims to bridge the gap by providing a patch that ensures compatibility with many of Bootstrap's most commonly used features. With a focus on maintaining functionality for users still reliant on this legacy browser, bsie presents a valuable tool for developers who need to cater to a wider audience while using the Bootstrap framework.

The library includes several CSS and JavaScript files that allow for the integration of Bootstrap's functionalities seamlessly. Although it doesn't cover every feature of Bootstrap, it significantly enhances IE6 compatibility, making it a worthwhile consideration for web developers dealing with older browser support.

Features

• Comprehensive CSS Files: Includes original and compressed CSS versions of Bootstrap for both standard and IE6 use.
• Main & Additional CSS: Provides a dedicated main CSS file (bootstrap-ie6.css) and an additional patch (ie.css) to address specific styling issues unique to IE6.
• JavaScript Support: Contains a JavaScript file (bootstrap-ie.js) that resolves problems that cannot be addressed purely through CSS.
• Icon Support: Features an 8-bit PNG image for transparent icons, ensuring a more acceptable visual presentation in IE6.
• Patchable LESS Files: Allows developers to compile patched LESS files for customized CSS solutions using the provided bootstrap-ie6.less file.
• Demo Files Included: Comes with demo HTML files to showcase various Bootstrap components showing how they function with the bsie patches.
• Manual Integration Steps: Offers clear instructions for integrating the library into existing projects, making adoption straightforward.
• Support for AJAX Content: Enables handling of new HTML snippets loaded via AJAX, ensuring that the styles and scripts are consistently applied.
