title: getting application.css to override bootstrap
body: <p>I'm trying to customise my rails app navbar and have added the css to application.css.  I know that application.css is being correctly referenced, because the app is picking up other styling from it.  But the navbar css is trying to override what is already in bootstrap.css, and the app is not recognising it...</p>
  
  <p>application.html.erb (layout)</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media =&gt; "all" %&gt;
      &lt;%= javascript_include_tag "application" %&gt;
      &lt;%= analytics_init if Rails.env.production? %&gt;
      &lt;link href="../assets/bootstrap-responsive.css" rel="stylesheet"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>application.css</p>
  
  <pre><code>body {
    padding-top: 20px;
    padding-bottom: 60px;
