Parent div CSS classes are not getting added to child div - html

I have a working dropdown with proper CSS classes and it works as expected. In another html page I have copied the same div structures including the CSS classes but it doesn't work.
I am using Chrome browser and When I do the F12 - inspect, I notice that the parent div class are not getting prefixed, and also the right CSS classes are not getting referenced.
Please find the snapshots which compares both with F12 - Inspect details
HTML code for the dropdown which works correctly
<div class="application-list">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="applicationMenu" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="true">
{{selected.application}}<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="applicationMenu">
<li *ngFor="let app of applications">
<a (click)=onChange(app)>{{app.application}}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
My HTML code for the dropdown which doesn't works correctly
<div class="col-lg-7">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-12">
<div class="col-lg-1">
<div class="application-list">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="applicationMenu" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="true">
{{selected.name}}<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="applicationMenu">
<li *ngFor="let app of workbookSheetsList">
<a (click)=onChange(app)>{{app.name}}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
What is the mistake I am doing here?

EDIT: I just discovered a small, but essential detail:
The CSS selector in the first image starts with application-list..." - WITHOUT a leading dot, which applies to the <application-list> tag, but not for the class .application-list....
In your first example there actually IS a tag <application-list> in the HTML, in the second example there is a div tag with the class application-list- so the selector application-list.. in your first example will only apply to the tag, not to the class with that name.
To fix it, either insert a wrapping tag <application-list> into the HTML of the second page or change the selector of that CSS rule to '.application-list...` (including the dot) – the class is present in both examples, the tag only in the first one.

How make <li> elements of dropdown overflow left

Using bootstrap I'd like to show combobox which should expand and show its items into visible part of web page.
Given following snippet:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-5">I contain long label</div>
<div class="col-xs-3"></div>
<div class="col-xs-4">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-default btn-block dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">
<span>Options</span>
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>This is very long text which normally overlays box on right</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
jsfiddle here
When dropdown button is expanded it overflows on right side and causes scrollbar to show.
How it would be possible to utilize free space on left side - e.g. make <ul> and <li> overflow original combobox header on other side and so prevent scrollbar to appear?
Just add class dropdown-menu-right to your ul item like
<ul id="migratorAvailableBuildings" class="dropdown-menu
migratorDropDownRight dropdown-menu-right"
Fiddle
adding .pull-right to ul.dropdown-menu should do it, updated fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/hku8a8nf/3/

Why is the ng-repeat directive failing to populate list items on a bootstrap dropdown?

Trying to do something very simple here:
<div class="container">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">Select Player
<span class="caret"></span></button>
<ul ng-repeat="name in Ids" class="dropdown-menu">
<li>
<a href="#/{{name.Player_Id}}">
{{name.Player_First_Name}} {{name.Player_Last_Name}}
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
I can't see why this isn't working: if I attempt to simply render an unordered list then the data is displayed correctly. But as soon as I try to include it in bootstrap's dropdown menu, the button is displayed but not expanded when clicked.
Why are you doing ng-repeat on the ul element, it should be li element, otherwise you're creating multiple lists.
<div class="container">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">Select Player
<span class="caret"></span></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li ng-repeat="name in Ids">
<a href="#/{{name.Player_Id}}">
{{name.Player_First_Name}} {{name.Player_Last_Name}}
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Your code says to repeat the <ul> element, but don't you want to repeat the <li> elements? This should work:
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li ng-repeat"name in IDs">
<a href="#/{{name.Player_Id}}">
{{name.Player_First_Name}} {{name.Player_Last_Name}}
</a>
</li>
</ul>
If you still have problems, I'd suggest you confirm your module is using the ui.bootstrap components. There are working examples of the dropdowns doing exactly what you want here on the documentation page.

Bootstrap dropdown: working on text, not buttons?

I can easily use Bootstrap to create a button dropdown such as the following:
<div class="btn-group">
<button class="btn">Action</button>
<button class="btn dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
content goes here
</ul>
</div>
However, this creates a button and block element (?).
Is it possible to use Bootstrap's button dropdwon to create normal text (best to be inline), clicking on which produces a dropdown?
I am not talking about Bootstrap tooltip. I am hoping to use the dropdown to hold a more complex layout.
Thanks for any idea or suggestion!
So you want a link instead of a button to toggle the dropdown? use this markup:
<div class="dropdown">
<a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#">Dropdown trigger</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
You can add any content here
</ul>
</div>
You can also add
.dropdown {
display: inline-block;
}
To make it appear inline

Use twitter-bootstrap dropdown menu as a container

Is it possible to prevent the dropdown menu to dissapear when "clicking in it". Trying to use a dropdown as a container for a textarea.
e.g
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12">
<div class="btn-group">
<a class="btn btn-mini dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#">
<strong id="revolver">
<i class="icon-envelope"></i>&nbsp
<span class="caret"></span>
</strong>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<div class="row-fluid send-message-textarea">
<div class="span12">
<textarea></textarea>
<br>
<button class="btn btn-mini"><strong>Send</strong></button>
</div>
</div>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Edit:
I guess a copy paste of the dropdown function inside bootstrap.js and then alter the selector and remove the unwanted functionality could be an option. I took a look at https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/blob/master/js/bootstrap-dropdown.js but I could not pinpoint exactly where the specific functionality lies. Help would be appritiated.
In your HTML, add an id to the <ul>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" id="test">
add a handler that prevents the dropdownmenu from responding to click
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#test").click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
});
you are now able to click and edit in the textarea.
