From bootstrap: Specifically, we support the latest versions of the following browsers and platforms. On Windows, we support Internet Explorer 8-11. More specific support information is provided below.

But I tested my site in almost all latest browsers that displaying fine. But when I tested it on Internet Explorer it's display is showing as if it is mobile view(as we use col-xs-*:: all contents are displayed as this view).

  • In IE11 -- it's fine.

  • In IE10 -- it's fine.

  • In IE9 -- it's displaying as if it is mobile view

  • In IE8 -- it's displaying redundantly

enter image description here

So, as said does bootstrap really supports IE8 , and IE9?

I'm using bootstrap 3.1.1 and testing my site on windows.

put <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge"/> on your head section, and it will work fine in ie9 and ie8 – erdimeola

IE versions 8 and newer are supported. The following meta tag is required to prevent IE from entering 'compatibility mode', which emulates IE7. (This is most likely why your site has issues with IE9.)

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

IE9 fails to support transform and transition.
