Manual
Step 1, In <head> block, add following stylesheet:
<!-- Bootstrap css file v2.2.1 -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<!-- bsie css patch -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="bootstrap/css/bootstrap-ie6.css">
<!-- bsie additional css patch -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="bootstrap/css/ie.css">
<![endif]-->
Step 2, In end of the document, add following javascript:
<!-- jQuery 1.7.2 or higher -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.7.2.min.js"></script>
<!-- Optional, bootstrap javascript library -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap.js"></script>
<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<!-- bsie js patch, it will only execute in IE6 -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/bootstrap-ie.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
Step 3, Optional accoding to your situation:
IE6 Notice: : call $.bootstrapIE6(el) for every new html snippet (for ajax html content)
/**
* make elements in container el to be compatible with IE6
*/
if ($.isFunction($.bootstrapIE6)) $.bootstrapIE6(el);
IE6 currently not support nested tabs control, because IE6 don't support child css selector

IE6 bug fix tip
hasLayout (clear float):
.container
{
zoom:1;
}
other css property which will trigger hasLayout:
position: absolute
float: left | right
display: inline-block
width: except 'auto'
height: except 'auto'
zoom: except 'normal'
overflow: hidden | scroll | auto
overflow-x/-y: hidden | scroll | auto
position: fixed
min-width: any value
max-width: except 'none'
min-height: any value
max-height: except 'none'
writing-mode: tb-rl /* only for MS */
following css property will clear hasLayout:
width: auto;
height: auto;
max-width: none; /* IE7 */
max-height: none; /* IE7 */
position: static;
float: none;
overflow: visible;
zoom: normal;
writing-mode: lr-t;
In one selector, following css will not set hasLayout=false:
.element {
display:inline-block;
display:inline;
}
inline-block:
`.container
{
zoom:1;
display:inline;
}
transparent color:
.element
{
border-color:pink/* rarely used color */;
filter:chroma(color:pink);
}
* notice: the filter will cause disappeared of absolute element which in relative container
body background color:
body { /* Faild: Sometime, it will not render whole page by gray color */
background-color: gray;
}
* html { /* Success! */
background-color: gray;
}
IE6-7 ul.dropdown-menu must add this style: *width:explicit-width;
/* for example */
*width:180px;
