Cool
I am using my own well class in the less file.
So to recap. <class "row">
<class "span4">
<class "mywell"/>
</div>
</div>
Can any one lese confirm that placing class names in spans (my own classes)
is bad practice? I can see your point, it's jut there will be a load of
reworking going into my site if that's the case. It sounds fair though. I
can see sherbrow has pretty much confirmed this for me too, I just thought
I could place my own class names alongside the span class div tag. So <div
class="span 5 myclass">
It makes sense though.
I have not had a chance to look at your code on how to achieve the, let's
call it 'float emulation', I am after. However I am currently pulling a row
to the right. I guess this is bad too though.
