How to capture when dropdown is open on React-CodePudding

Is there a way to tell when the dropdown is open and also closed? onfocus and onblur doesn't seem to be working.

<div className="select-container">
  <select>
    {options.map((option) => (
      <option value={option.value}>{option.label}</option>
     ))}
  </select>
</div

You should use useState to keep track of the dropdown status. It would look something like this:

import "./styles.css";
import { useState } from "react";

export default function App() {

  const [isDropDownOpen, setDropDownOpen] = useState(false);

  let options = [
    {
      label: "money"
    }
  ];

  const handleSelect = () => {
    setDropDownOpen(!isDropDownOpen);
  };

  const handleBlur = () => {
    setDropDownOpen(!isDropDownOpen);
  };

  console.log(isDropDownOpen);

  return (
    <div>
      <select onBlur={handleBlur} onClick={handleSelect}>
        {options.map((option) => (
          <option value={option.value}>{option.label}</option>
        ))}
      </select>
    </div>
  );
}

I have tied it into the handleSelect function, which will probably do more than just keep track of whether or not the dropdown is open but either way, it works as a reference point for now.

EDIT: Also, in case you click outside the dropdown, I used onBlur, which is controlled by handleBlur to change the boolean value because obviously, the dropdown will close.

Check the console.log on the this code sandbox to see how it works: https://codesandbox.io/s/amazing-easley-0mf7o3?file=/src/App.js
