bootstrap 4 dropdown menu outside close-CodePudding

Im using javascript to keep my dropdown toggle on a Bootstrap 4 website not closing when clicking inside the .dropdown element, but I'm having hard time getting it to work so it closes when i click outside the .dropdown element. Currently it doesn't close unless i click the toggle button again...

Any suggestions?

Here is the script

jQuery('.dropdown-toggle').on('click', function (e) {
  $(this).next().toggle();
});
jQuery('.dropdown-menu.keep-open').on('click', function (e) {
  e.stopPropagation();
});

if(1) {
  $('body').attr('tabindex', '0');
}
else {
  alertify.confirm().set({'reverseButtons': true});
  alertify.prompt().set({'reverseButtons': true});
}

CodePudding user response：

Simply you can add an onclick: event.stopPropagation() event on the .dropdown-menu to achieve what you want <div onclick="event.stopPropagation()">

P.S: to use jQuery you can use $ instead of jQuery. If you cannot use it, you may have jQuery noConflict mode enabled somewhere in your code, see jQuery noConflict
