  <h2 id="dropdowns-usage">Usage</h2>
  <p>Via data attributes or JavaScript, the dropdown plugin toggles hidden content (dropdown menus) by toggling the <code>.open</code> class on the parent list item.</p>
  <p>On mobile devices, opening a dropdown adds a <code>.dropdown-backdrop</code> as a tap area for closing dropdown menus when tapping outside the menu, a requirement for proper iOS support. <strong class="text-danger">This means that switching from an open dropdown menu to a different dropdown menu requires an extra tap on mobile.</strong></p>
  <p>Note: The <code>data-toggle="dropdown"</code> attribute is relied on for closing dropdown menus at an application level, so it's a good idea to always use it.</p>

  <h3>Via data attributes</h3>
  <p>Add <code>data-toggle="dropdown"</code> to a link or button to toggle a dropdown.</p>
{% highlight html %}
<div class="dropdown">
  <button id="dLabel" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
    Dropdown trigger
    <span class="caret"></span>
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dLabel">
    ...
  </ul>
</div>
{% endhighlight %}
  <p>To keep URLs intact with link buttons, use the <code>data-target</code> attribute instead of <code>href="#"</code>.</p>
{% highlight html %}
<div class="dropdown">
  <a id="dLabel" data-target="#" href="http://example.com/" data-toggle="dropdown" role="button" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
    Dropdown trigger
    <span class="caret"></span>
  </a>

  <ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dLabel">
    ...
  </ul>
</div>
{% endhighlight %}

  <h3>Via JavaScript</h3>
  <p>Call the dropdowns via JavaScript:</p>
{% highlight js %}
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()
{% endhighlight %}
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-info" id="callout-dropdowns-data-required">
    <h4><code>data-toggle="dropdown"</code> still required</h4>
    <p>Regardless of whether you call your dropdown via JavaScript or instead use the data-api, <code>data-toggle="dropdown"</code> is always required to be present on the dropdown's trigger element.</p>
  </div>

  <h3 id="dropdowns-options">Options</h3>
  <p><em>None</em></p>

  <h3 id="dropdowns-methods">Methods</h3>
  <h4><code>$().dropdown('toggle')</code></h4>
  <p>Toggles the dropdown menu of a given navbar or tabbed navigation.</p>

  <h3 id="dropdowns-events">Events</h3>
  <p>All dropdown events are fired at the <code>.dropdown-menu</code>'s parent element.</p>
  <p>All dropdown events have a <code>relatedTarget</code> property, whose value is the toggling anchor element.</p>
  <div class="table-responsive">
    <table class="table table-bordered table-striped bs-events-table">
      <thead>
        <tr>
          <th>Event Type</th>
          <th>Description</th>
        </tr>
      </thead>
      <tbody>
        <tr>
          <td>show.bs.dropdown</td>
          <td>This event fires immediately when the show instance method is called.</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td>shown.bs.dropdown</td>
          <td>This event is fired when the dropdown has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions, to complete).</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td>hide.bs.dropdown</td>
          <td>This event is fired immediately when the hide instance method has been called.</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td>hidden.bs.dropdown</td>
          <td>This event is fired when the dropdown has finished being hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions, to complete).</td>
        </tr>
      </tbody>
