Floating labels
Create beautifully simple form labels that float over your input fields.
Example
<div class="form-floating">
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="floatingInput" placeholder="name@example.com">
<label for="floatingInput">Email address</label>
</div>
<div class="form-floating">
<select class="form-select" id="floatingSelect" aria-label="Floating label select example">
<option selected>Open this select menu</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
</select>
<label for="floatingSelect">Works with selects</label>
</div>
Readonly plaintext
Floating labels also support .form-control-plaintext, which can be helpful for toggling from an editable input to a plaintext value without affecting the page layout.
<div class="form-floating">
<input type="email" readonly class="form-control-plaintext" id="floatingEmptyPlaintextInput" placeholder="name@example.com">
<label for="floatingEmptyPlaintextInput">Empty input</label>
</div>
Layout
When working with the Bootstrap grid system, be sure to place form elements within column classes.
<div class="row g-2">
<div class="col-md">
<div class="form-control-wrap">
<div class="form-floating">
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="floatingInputGrid" placeholder="name@example.com" value="mdo@example.com">
<label for="floatingInputGrid">Email address</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md">
<div class="form-control-wrap">
<div class="form-floating">
<select class="form-select" id="floatingSelectGrid">
<option selected>Open this select menu</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
</select>
<label for="floatingSelectGrid">Works with selects</label>
</div>
