I've been combing around looking for an example of the same problem I'm having but no luck yet. I'm trying to create a multi-level collapsible side navigation in bootstrap using bootstrap.js.
My problem is that I've added in the second level but when I click the list item to trigger it to open it collapses the whole menu. When I re-open the menu, the second-level menu is open also. My code is below:
<div class="sidebar-nav">
<p class="sidenav-header">Units and Lessons:</p>
<ul class="nav nav-list">
<li class="nav-header" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#content-areas"> <span class="nav-header-primary">
Content Areas
</span>
<ul class="nav nav-list collapse" id="content-areas">
<li>All</li>
<li>Urban Planning</li>
<li>Sustainability</li>
<li>Public Administration</li>
<li data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#nav-health" data-parent="#content-areas">Health
<ul class="nav-secondary nav-list collapse" id="nav-health">
<li>Introduction</li>
<li>Lesson: What is Epilepsy?</li>
<li>Lesson: Pathology</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="nav-header" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#languages"> <span class="nav-header-primary">
Languages
</span>
<ul class="nav nav-list collapse" id="languages">
<li>All</li>
<li>Arabic</li>
<li>Turkish</li>
<li>Hebrew</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
The specific section I'm talking about is under the "Health" list item under "Content Areas".
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
The problem with your markup is that whole menu is collapsed when you try to click within the list. For example, if you click All inside of Content Areas it collapse the Content Areas. The same is happening for the second level menu, Health in your case.
This is caused because you don't have an accordion-heading specified. Take a look into Bootstrap Collapse Documentation where you will find an example like this:
<div class="accordion-heading">
<a class="accordion-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion2" href="#collapseOne">
Collapsible Group Item #1
</a>
Once you specify the heading your second level nav should work fine.
I have created a fiddle for you to verify. I modified the Content Areas according to the Documentation and the second level menu worked fine. However, I did not modify the Languages menu items so that you can see how it's acting (try clicking within the list once the Languages is expanded)
While Similar to Pitamber's example I would not add some of the extra classes, especially the extra div with class "accoridan-heading", just apply that class to the a tag as so.
<ul class="nav nav-list">
<li>
<a>Menu Item with No Sub-Items</a>
</li>
<li>
<a class="accordion-heading" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#submenu">
<span class="nav-header-primary">Menu Item with Sub-Items <b class="caret"></b></span>
</a>
<ul class="nav nav-list collapse" id="submenu">
<li>Sub Item 1</li>
<li>Sub Item 2</li>
<li>Sub Item 3</li>
<li>Sub Item 4</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
You can go further and add CSS and or some JS to place some contrast on the sub-menu and also to flip/change the caret icon when a menu item is expanded and collapsed.

I have a script that makes active menu item with moving line, but this is one-page and I want that during scroll active menu change. I tried diffrent scripts here but it doesn't work.
Here is the HTML code:
<div class="nav-container">
<ul class="menu">
<li><a class="active" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li>Skup</li>
<li>Sprzedaż</li>
<li>Serwis</li>
<li>Kontakt</li>
<div id="line"></div>
</ul>
JS(on fiddle because stack wants more details) :

You are looking for the Scrollspy.
This is how you can do it:
If you go to this dev site (it's a Joomla site using bootstrap) and view on 1023px wide screen or smaller (or any smartphone), there is a hamburger menu. If you click it, it drops down a menu and if you click "Learn More", it jumps to a form (because it's really just an anchor). However, the dropdown menu stays open (because it's not going to a new page I guess).
Is there an easy way to add some code that basically says "any dropdown menu click should CLOSE the dropdown menu"?
Here is the code for the menu when it's expanded (first nav tag is probably all that's important)...
<nav class="t3-navbar-collapse navbar-collapse collapse in"><ul class="nav navbar-nav level0">
<li>
Home
</li>
<li class="dropdown">
Features <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="level1 dropdown-menu"><li>
Scheduling & Routing
</li><li>
Billing & Invoicing
</li><li>
Mobile Workforce
</li><li>
Office Staff Persona
</li><li>
Owner Persona
</li><li>
Field Worker Persona
</li></ul></li>
<li class="dropdown">
Industries <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="level1 dropdown-menu"><li>
Cleaning
</li><li>
Lawn
</li><li>
Pest
</li><li>
HVAC
</li></ul></li>
<li>
Pricing
</li>
<li class="active dropdown">
About <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="level1 dropdown-menu"><li class="current active">
Resources
</li><li>
Support
</li><li>
Security
</li></ul></li>
<li class="">
Learn More
</li>
<li>
Contact
</li>
<li>
Log In
</li>
</ul></nav>
And then when it collapses again, the classes in the nav tag look like this...
<nav class="t3-navbar-collapse navbar-collapse collapse" style="height: 1px;">
So it looks like that class of "in" needs to go away. Therefore, I am trying this jquery, but it isn't working. Shouldn't this work?
jQuery(function($) {
$("li a").click(function() {
$("nav.t3-navbar-collapse").removeClass( "in" );
});
});
Sorry for the bad luck on the first question, I actually just did this recently so I have a snippet on hand for you.
Basically what you want to tell the code to do is close the nav when you click an anchor, so you target the a and use a slideUp property.
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a").click(function(){
$("Your_Nav_ID").slideUp('slow');
});
});
If I setup a Master page to display a header similar to the following
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-main" id="mainMenu">
<li>
<a class="dropdown-toggle" href="default.aspx">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
About Us
</li>
</ul>
I want to set the element active for the current page the user is on so in html it will look like this if default.aspx is the active page.
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-main" id="mainMenu">
<li class="dropdown active"> <%--active--%>
<a class="dropdown-toggle" href="default.aspx">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
About Us
</li>
</ul>
The header menu is based on an existing template so is all html with CSS styling and does not contain any asp: controls. I know I can do this in codebehind by setting the attributes but most of the searches I've pulled up say there could be a better way or here's a dirty workaround link1 & link2
What would be the best way(s) of doing this?
First you have to set all li tags as server Controls
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-main" id="mainMenu">
<li>
<a class="dropdown-toggle" href="default.aspx" runat="server" id="lidefault">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
About Us
</li>
</ul>
do like the above for all li tags
Then in master page load,
string sURL=Request.Url.ToString().ToLower();
if (sURL.Contains("/default.aspx")
lidefault.Attributes.Add("class", "active")
else if (sURL.Contains("/about.aspx")
liabout.Attributes.Add("class", "active")
// do like the above for the rest li tags
You can check it with javascript. Set a foreach loop for check each link of your menu. If your menu url equal the page url, add active class with .addClass() method.
I've created two dropdown using navbar-right.
Here's the fiddle for it.
Issue is... It is working fine in desktop and large screens.
If I resize the browser window. The dropdown gets in a list view with the entire width of the screen when re-sized.
Re-size the result window and you'll come to know my problem.
Help me to overcome this.
Thanks in advance.
This isn't really the way to use a Bootstrap navbar. The idea of the navbar is that it collapses down on mobile, which is what you're seeing happening here. Except, in the Bootstrap navbar, you are supposed to put some containers with specific class names and a <button> etc. You're code just seems to be using navbar-right for the sake of floating it right.
Try this instead. It's 1 list, each <li> has a dropdown. There's no navbar classes. Note that I've added the class nav. This just gives the <a> some padding and colouring on hover etc. You can remove that class and style as required. I also added the class 'pull-right' which is Bootstrap's helper class for floating right.
<div>
<ul class="pull-right nav">
<li class="dropdown">
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-comment"></i>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
<li>One</li>
<li>Two</li>
<li>Three</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="dropdown">
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-home"></i>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
<li>One</li>
<li> Two</li>
<li> Three</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Some CSS
div > ul > li {
float: left;
}
This won't be responsive like the navbar, but that seemed to be the problem in the first place.
DEMO
I'm creating a whole website using Java / JSP, but also using zurb foundation.
Now I know that you have to call $(document).foundation(); to make foundation work, but because I'm using ajax to switch between screens (does not have that flash effect of that white screen when switching between pages) when I open my home page it executes that method ($(document).foundation();) and everything looks fine.
The problem comes in with the Top Nav bar that I have. If it goes over to the mobile version, you get that Menu button on the right hand side, and switching there between sub categories, shows a "Back" button to go back to the parent category.
The problem begins when I open my next page (using ajax), it now has components on there namely components. These in fact looks way better on foundation than the normal standard html ones. When I execute $(document).foundation(); again, the components goes into the foundation styled components but now with the top nav bar, there are 2 back buttons and that messes around with the functionality of the back button as well i.e. breaks it. When I go to the screen again, it adds another back button and so on.
Is there someway to revert the foundation() method, and then call it again to refresh it?
This is my Top Nav bar.

I've been having the same issue. I couldn't find a solution through foundation, but I did come up with something that's suitable for my purposes.
Firstly, instead of simply doing $(document).foundation(), I execute
$(document).foundation({topbar : {custom_back_text: false }});
This makes it so that the "back" button is now named after its previous menu. So, each back button title should be unique. It's important that they are unique. Now, I have a script that removes all duplicate menu items, based on their link text. I have it set to trigger each time someone clicks on a menu item with sub-items (foundation gives these a class of 'has-dropdown not-click'). This way the script only runs when it's truly needed.
function (){
var uniqueBackButtons = [];
$.each($('.back'), function(){
if(uniqueBackButtons.indexOf(this.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].data) == -1){
uniqueBackButtons.push(this.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].data);
}
else{
$(this).remove();
}
});
}
I also have the same issue.
I think the reason why I do have multiple "back" button is because of multiple declaration of this code:
$(document).foundation();
Notice that I have embedded this
<script src="js/app.js"></script>
that also contains that script. It works to me. I put all my scripts on js/app.js
