html - Twitter bootstrap 3 navbar navbar-right outside navbar-collapse

Question

In Twitter bootstrap 2.3.2 I can have something like: http://jsfiddle.net/aQwUZ/3/

<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">

        <div class="navbar-inner">
            <div class="container">

                <a data-target=".nav-collapse" data-toggle="collapse" class="btn btn-navbar">
                    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                    <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                </a>
                <a href="#" class="brand">BRAND</a>
                <ul class="nav  pull-right">
                  <li>
                    <a href="#">Fixed Link</a>
                  </li>
                </ul>

                <div class="nav-collapse">
                    <ul class="nav">
                        <li><a href="#">L1</a></li>
                        <li><a href=#">L2</a></li>
                    </ul>
                </div>

            </div>
        </div>
</div>

A twitter bootstrap navbar, where in mobile responsive view, "Fixed Link" stay visible in header.

Now, in bootstrap 3, after upgrade my code, I can only have: http://jsfiddle.net/EC3Ly/4/

<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
            <div class="container">
                <div class="navbar-header">
                    <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
                        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                    </button>
                    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">BRAND</a>
                </div>
                <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
                          <li>
                            <a href="#">Fixed Link</a>
                          </li>
                </ul>
                <div class="navbar-collapse collapse">

                    <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
                         <li><a href="#">L1</a></li>
                        <li><a href=#">L2</a></li>
                    </ul>

                </div>

            </div>
</nav>

in mobile responsive view, I get 2 lines... I tried to wrap in a "navbar-header" node http://jsfiddle.net/EC3Ly/5/ or in the first "navbar-header" without success.

What did I miss?

Thanks,

Alexandre

I faced the same problem with BS3, and the only way I found to resolve it was to use a combination of pull-left and pull-right

<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
  <div class="container">
    <div class="navbar-header pull-left">
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">BRAND</a>
    </div>
    <div class="navbar-header pull-right">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav pull-left">
        <li>
          <a href="#">Fixed Link</a>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
      </button>
    </div>
    <div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
        <li><a href="#">L1</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">L2</a></li>
      </ul>                    
    </div>
  </div>
</nav>
