Example Explained
The
.dropdown class indicates a dropdown menu.
To open the dropdown menu, use a button or a link with a class of
.dropdown-toggle and the data-toggle="dropdown" attribute.
The
.caret class creates a caret arrow icon (), which indicates that the button is a dropdown.
Add the
.dropdown-menu class to a <ul> element to actually build the dropdown menu.Dropdown Divider
The
.divider class is used to separate links inside the dropdown menu with a thin horizontal border
Code:
