I am trying to create a dropdown menu for each use post which will allow user's to share/save/delete posts listed on the site.
Regardless of which post dropdown menu I click, the dropdown menu content always appears under the post at the top of the page. (see picture below code)
How can I fix this to show the associated dropdown per post?

<div >
<img src="../profilepictures/'.$ProfilePicture.'">

<div >
<button onclick="myFunction()" >···</button>
<div Id="myDropdown" >
<a href="#home">Home</a>
<a href="#about">About</a>

for (i = 0; i < dropdowns.length; i ) {
var openDropdown = dropdowns[i];
if (openDropdown.classList.contains("show")) {
openDropdown.classList.remove("show");
}
