How to put a Bootstrap dropdown menu to display on the right side? Here is a template:
I found an example in the jsfiddle that with some adaptation I think it caters to what you want (I think it's cool and I think which I will also use: D). I put it in snippet
, click below in "Run code snippet" , which you can already see working.
$(function(){
$(".dropdown-menu > li > a.trigger").on("click",function(e){
var current=$(this).next();
var grandparent=$(this).parent().parent();
if($(this).hasClass('left-caret')||$(this).hasClass('right-caret'))
$(this).toggleClass('right-caret left-caret');
grandparent.find('.left-caret').not(this).toggleClass('right-caret left-caret');
grandparent.find(".sub-menu:visible").not(current).hide();
current.toggle();
e.stopPropagation();
});
$(".dropdown-menu > li > a:not(.trigger)").on("click",function(){
var root=$(this).closest('.dropdown');
root.find('.left-caret').toggleClass('right-caret left-caret');
root.find('.sub-menu:visible').hide();
});
});
.dropdown-menu>li
{ position:relative;
-webkit-user-select: none; /* Chrome/Safari */
-moz-user-select: none; /* Firefox */
-ms-user-select: none; /* IE10+ */
/* Rules below not implemented in browsers yet */
-o-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
cursor:pointer;
}
.dropdown-menu .sub-menu {
left: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
display:none;
margin-top: -1px;
border-top-left-radius:0;
border-bottom-left-radius:0;
border-left-color:#fff;
box-shadow:none;
}
.right-caret:after,.left-caret:after
{ content:"";
border-bottom: 5px solid transparent;
border-top: 5px solid transparent;
display: inline-block;
height: 0;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 0;
margin-left:5px;
}
.right-caret:after
{ border-left: 5px solid #ffaf46;
}
.left-caret:after
{ border-right: 5px solid #ffaf46;
}
