I am building a website . The site is not completely build by bootstrap . Then I want to use bootstrap to make a simple form . After adding bootstrap the navigation bar is broken , it lost it's spacing and height and width and so on .
Here are some point to be noted 1. My nav bar is always stick on the top 2. I have changed all the id and class in my HTML file so , it doesn't conflict with any bootstrap class or id .

Here is the CSS
#nav-original {
background:url("../images/header.png") 50% 0 no-repeat;
background-color:#1C1414;
width:100%;
z-index:110;
position:fixed;
text-align:center;
box-shadow:0 0 5px #2a2a2a;
}
input {
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
#navitems-original {
width:1024px;
height:50px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:20px 0px;
transition: margin 0.15s ease-in 0s;
position:relative;
}
#navitems-original ul {
padding-top:12px;
margin-left:280px;
}
#nav-original ul li {
margin-right:0px;
font-size:16px;
display:inline;
text-transform:uppercase;
position:relative;
}
#nav-original a {
text-decoration:none;
outline:none;
}
#nav-original div#logo {
position:absolute;
top:0;
border:none;
}
#nav-original ul li a {
color:#B2B0B0;
text-decoration:none;
padding:18px 18px 6px 18px;
outline:none;
font-weight:normal;
transition: color 0.2s ease-in 0s
}
#nav-original ul li a:hover, #nav ul li a.active {
color:#C03118;
}
Bootstrap uses a global reset
*,
*:before,
*:after {
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
Your code is using box-sizing:content-box (which is the default, you don't need to set it). Since you'll mess up a multitude of styles, including the entire grid system, by removing this from Bootstrap, change your math on your non-bootstrap css.
Example
.myboxywox {
height:70px;
padding:10px 0;
}
Total height of 70px;
before you'd have to make that height: 50px because you had top and bottom 10px padding, with box-sizing: border-box you do not.
