Bootstrap dropdown closing when clicked

Question

I put a form inside a bootstrap dropdown, but when I click any of the fields in the form, the dropdown goes away. I have this piece of code but I don't know where to put it to prevent the dropdown disappearing.

$(function test() {
  // Setup drop down menu
  $('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown();

  // Fix input element click problem
  $('.dropdown input, .dropdown label').click(function(e) {
    e.stopPropagation();
  });
});

Could someone please tell me where I should put this? I tried in the bootstrap-dropdown, I tried within the HTML but it still doesn't work.

Answer 1

You can omit the dropdown call all together, the bootstrap dropdown works without it. Make sure you're wrapping your script properly, you can include it on the header or body of your page, although personally i prefer placing it on the body of your page.

JS

<script type="text/javascript">
    $('.dropdown-menu input, .dropdown-menu label').click(function(e) {
        e.stopPropagation();
    });
</script>
