issues bootstrap 3 Carousel changing height to 0px and marigin to -.....px

The Carousel I added to my site behaves really strange. In a periode of 2 the slide slides up. The height of the parent div changes to 0px and the margin of the child div gets a negative margin. In a the examples on the bootstrap site this isn't happening. I copied the latest code from the bootstrap site, can't find what i am doing wrong.
I would love it if someone could help me.
http://humandemo.cloudaccess.host Header right at the top op the page.
Code used:
<div class="container">
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<!-- Carousel indicators -->
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
</ol>
<!-- Wrapper for carousel items -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="item active">
<img src="/images/page-specific/home/iPhone-Comp-hw.png" alt="Second Slide">
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="/images/page-specific/home/iPhone-Comp-hw.png" alt="First Slide">
</div>
</div>
<!-- Carousel controls -->
<a class="carousel-control left" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="prev">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left"></span>
</a>
<a class="carousel-control right" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="next">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span>
</a>
</div>
</div>

I guess this is the work of the mootools-more.js. This script includes the Fx.Slide class:
The slide effect slides an Element in horizontally or vertically. The contents will fold inside.
Try to comment this script.

#Jeroen: I have checked your website and tried some changes with Css by "Inspect Element" and As per me You should check div id="myCarousel" and div class="carousel-inner". If they have been set with some height or not. Hope this helps you.

Your Bootsrap carousel code is perfect, there is no issue with that. There may be issue with your another script, I have used your code in the codepen and its works perfectly fine.

I did some research after the answer of #Gleb Kemarsky, thank you for that. And indeed mootools conflicts with bootstrap, see: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/475
The fix is:
if (typeof jQuery != 'undefined') {
(function($) {
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.carousel').each(function(index, element) {
$(this)[index].slide = null;
});
});
})(jQuery);
}

How to change the background-image of the full slider - bootstrap

I'm using the full slider bootstrap and would like to keep all the features, but instead of putting all images in the Carousel, I wonder if it is possible to keep only one and only change the background-image.
<!-- Full Page Image Background Carousel Header -->
<header id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide">
<!-- Indicators -->
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
</ol>
<!-- Wrapper for Slides -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="item active">
<!-- Set the first background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide One');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 1</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<!-- Set the second background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide Two');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 2</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<!-- Set the third background image using inline CSS below. -->
<div class="fill" style="background-image:url('http://placehold.it/1900x1080&text=Slide Three');"></div>
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h2>Caption 3</h2>
</div>
</div>

I don't know why you would want this function, but since you're asking, I'll give you a solution.
With the .css()-selector in jQuery, you can target CSS and change it with jQuery.
You can create an array or variable, loop through it with .each(), store that information in another variable and then let jQuery change the background-image after some time or after an action. You can change the background by using the following jQuery:
$('.classname').css('background-image', 'variable');
Just as an example (you'll have to figure out yourself how to do it with the background-images, how to let jQuery display another one etc), I have set up this fiddle. In the fiddle, I have a variable, which I split on the | and which I then loop through with .each(). This variable (chunk) is later used to make some new divs with the respective chunk as a classname.
jQuery
var somestring = "img1|img2|img3",
separated = somestring.split("|");
$.each(separated, function(index, chunk) {
$('.test').append('<div class="' + chunk + '">' + chunk + '</div>');
//This line is purely added to do something with the chunks
});
I didn't want to make the whole code of you, since this site is made to help each other. I gave you a pretty good push to the right direction, you now just have to figure out how to change the background-image-property on a click or other action.

Dynamic background color in Bootstrap Carousel with AngularJS

I have a strange behaviorin Bootstrap Carousel which I am using with AngularJS. Below is the HTML code where I am trying to dynamically add background color to each thumbnail. What I observe is the following:
Initially, the "active" part of carousel adds background color dynamically to each thumbnail as expected.
However, once I start rotating the carousel, all thumbnails lose their background color.
Now, when I reload the page, all thumbnails get background color again.
So I cannot understand what causing the loss of background color initially during rotation? Thanks.
<div class="well">
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide">
<!-- Carousel items -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div ng-repeat="imgSet in imgSets" ng-class="{item: true, active : $first}">
<div ng-class="row">
<div ng-repeat="img in imgSet track by img.id" class="col-sm-3">
<a href="/appDetail/{{img.id}}" class="thumbnail" style="background-color: {{img.tile_color}};">
<img ng-src="{{uri}}/{{img.image}}" alt="Image" class="img-responsive" height="{{img.tile_height}}" width="{{img.tile_width}}">
</a>
</div>
</div>
<!--/row-->
</div>
<!--/item-->
</div>
<!--/carousel-inner-->
<a class="left carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="prev">‹</a>
<a class="right carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="next">›</a>
</div>
<!--/myCarousel-->
</div>
<!--/well-->

Well I found how to fix it, but I still do not understand why the original is not working (and why the fix is working):
my {{img.tile_color}} is a string of the form "#1956B7" (or any other #). I thought one must have "#" sign in front of the number. When I removed the "#" it started working.

Implementing twitter bootstrap carousel v2.3.2

I am having trouble implementing the bootstrap carousel. Can anyone look at the following html and js and give me instructions on how to implement the slide. The .js has not been edited and the carousel is installed on the body hero unit. Do I implement the carousel api? How do I define the carousel I am using within the .js file? Thanks.
<div class="carousel">
<!-- Carousel items -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<!-- Main hero unit for a primary marketing message or call to action -->
<div class="hero-unit">
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<p>This is a template for a simple marketing or informational website. It includes a large callout called the hero unit and three supporting pieces of content. Use it as a starting point to create something more unique.</p>
<p><a class="btn btn-primary btn-large">Learn more »</a></p>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Carousel nav -->
<a class="carousel-control left" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="prev">‹</a>
<a class="carousel-control right" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="next">›</a>
</div>

Note: this answer was originally for Bootstrap 2.3.2 (may not work with version 3)
You have to put the class "item" on all of your slides and the class "active" on the first slide. This worked for me.
<div class="carousel">
<div class="carousel-inner">
<!-- your slide -->
<div class="hero-unit item active">
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<p>This is a template for a simple marketing or informational website. It includes a large callout called the hero unit and three supporting pieces of content. Use it as a starting point to create something more unique.</p>
<p><a class="btn btn-primary btn-large">Learn more »</a></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
And like Christopher said you need to use this function to initiate it.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('.carousel').carousel();
});
</script>

My understanding is that
<div class="carousel">
Needs to be
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel">
where the id is whatever the "Arrows"' href is.

The documentation for Bootstrap Carousel is available here: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/javascript.html#carousel
I guess you would need to add something like this to get it running:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('.carousel').carousel();
});
</script>

You have no items in your example code.
to get it to work you need to have at least two items, with in your carousel-inner div.
create a second item
make sure the first item has the active class; this starts the ball rolling
the bare code should look like this
.
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="active item">…</div>
<div class="item">…</div>
<div class="item">…</div>
</div>

This is in Joomla 3.1.1 with the Protostar template which is based on Bootstrap.
I did't get the carousel to automticly cycle. This worked for me:
Use a Custom html module, add this code:
(change the img scr, alt text and caption text to customize)
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide">
<ol class="carousel-indicators" style="list-style: none;">
<li class="active" data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
</ol>
<!-- Carousel items -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="active item">
<img src="images/headers/maple.jpg" alt="imagetext 1" />
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h4>Exampletext 1</h4>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="images/headers/raindrops.jpg" alt="imagetext 2" />
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h4>Exampletext</h4>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="images/headers/windows.jpg" alt="imagetext 3" />
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h4>Exampletext</h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Carousel nav -->
<a class="carousel-control left" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="prev">‹</a> <a class="carousel-control right" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="next">›</a>
</div>
<!-- Call Carousel -->
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($){$('.carousel').carousel({ interval: 5000, pause:'hover'});
})(jQuery);
</script>
This adjustments in the index.php of your template is to prevent confict between scripts, it disables mootools which causes the carousel to open and close beween slides:
// CSUTOM disable mootools-more.js
unset (JFactory::getDocument()->_scripts['/jomaatcms/media/system/js/mootools-core.js']);
unset (JFactory::getDocument()->_scripts['/jomaatcms/media/system/js/mootools-more.js']);

Sliding images in Bootstrap's Carousel next to eachother

Please take a look at the carousel in this link.
Is there a way I can alter the code of Twitter Bootstrap's carousel to make the images slide properly instead of messing up like they do now?

Try to add to the outer div containing the carousel with classname 'carousel', the extra classname: 'slide'.
You will get an sliding carousel with this:
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide">
<!-- Carousel items -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<div class="active item">…</div>
<div class="item">…</div>
<div class="item">…</div>
</div>
<!-- Carousel nav -->
<a class="carousel-control left" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="prev">‹</a>
<a class="carousel-control right" href="#myCarousel" data-slide="next">›</a>
</div>

I looked at your code and all of your images are wrapped within a <div class="item">...</div> which is correct. However, one of these must be set to active so you'd need to make one of them <div class="item active">.
