Unfortunately the title I have given is very vague. I honestly wasn't sure how to word it. Anyway, basically I currently have a vertical navbar with a small caret beside the text. Once clicked, the particular button uncollapses and shows it's contents.
As seen in the image above, I'm attempting to have a secondary caret that should be sitting on the right of the button. This caret will follow suit on every other button once I get it working. Anyway, I'm currently using twitter-bootstrap and from what I understand, I could be able to split the button into 2, each having their own function. For example, if one were to click the text and the downwards caret, it should uncollapse the menu (Which it does fine right now). Though, when you click the right facing caret, it should just bring you to another page via an href or something. Currently, clicking either button will collapse and uncollapse the menu.
As you can see, the right facing caret separates itself from the original button but in a weird way. On the far right of the image is an example of the button separation I would like. In the Twitter-Bootstrap example, the "button" text and the caret both do different functions. I'm not entirely sure on how to achieve this via the current button setup I have. I'm quite happy with how the current buttons look visually but I want to be able to add that secondary caret that is justified to the right of the button. As well as have that secondary button separate nicely, similar to that of the Twitter-Bootstrap example.
TL;DR: how do I get a button to split into 2 piece via the current HTML that I have. I would like to keep the styling and I would like each button to have it's own functionality.

Just make two buttons and style them to be close to one another. Use CSS styling to get it done. You can lower the margins on the sides to get them closer, you could use border-radius to get rid of the corners in the middle, etc etc.
Just figure out how you want it to look. And forget about splitting buttons, that is not something you can technically do, or should want. Create 2 buttons and style them.

I've seen examples online of bootstrap forms or fields with validations under inputs (ie: please enter username). And upon validation success the message is hidden, it appears that the text/elements below the focused input jump or shift upwards.
Just curious if there's something built into bootstrap that will help keep the elements in alignment, minus the shifting upwards when the validation is hidden.
Examples I've seen the issue with are both with
Here's an example from the bootstrap site itself. Submit the form and you'll see everything else under it shifting upwards when the validations appear/hide.

There's nothing built in to bootstrap to control this - you are adding a new element to the page so it will cause layout changes.
On solution that you could do manually might be to add the text with position: absolute or other positioning that will position the text above the rest of the document flow. You would have to carefully manage your spacing though so that there is space for the text below the input.
I dont know what the technical term for this is but I decided to use the term "Ghost Marks" to describe it. This is done using Chrome.
Using Bootstrap I have two tabs. There is more content in the first tab so the container is longer than the second tab. Outside (below) the tabs container there is another div with some text and a green button.
Sometimes when I click between the two tabs "Ghost Marks" of the div outside the container are left on the page. This is occurring because when I switch from the larger tab to the smaller tab the div outside the container moves up the page leaving marks as it goes along.
Here is an example of what it looks like:
It has something to do with the way chrome paints the HTML. If I press F12 the Ghost marks disappear.
I could make the 2nd tabs container the same height as the first tabs container but that would leave a lot of white space.
Any ideas how to make sure this doesn't happen?
Introduction to clearify the task
I have a Navbar on the left side of my page. It has two levels for Items. When it's displayed in a small device, only the icons of the first level are shown. If you hover over it a dropdown of sub-items wil be shown on the right side of the bar. So far so good.
When the user uses a normal device the first-level-items should be displayed as dropdown-headers and the sub-items should expand under their parent-items on click. So I planned to set the sub-items-container under the main-items with height: 0px; and exband it with javascript-onclick and a css transition.
But as you can see the sub-items are hovering over the main item.
Question
How can i ensure that the subitemlist is between the main-items and not over it?
Additionally the solution shouldn't destroy the responsivness.
Note: I really want to make my own navbar, so using Bootstrap is not an option. Also i'm sorry if the code is not the best, it's the first try.

I have put the whole thing in a jsfiddle
you cant put it in sidebaritem you have to put it below it
I have a web page I am testing that is doing a slight shift to the left when I click on "Solutions". To toggle back and forth go to "Solutions" and then the logo.
http://jmcintosh.aisites.com/TRS/index.html
I know exactly what the problem is in my CSS. It's the "div.breakright ul li" for the orange dotted list items in the "Solutions" page.
I've tried multiple different ways but can not get the page to stop shifting.
Need another set of eyes or another way to apply it, look at it.
It's shifting left because of the scroll-bar. You only notice this shift when other pages don't require scrolling. This isn't a CSS issue, but you can make it unnoticeable via CSS.
html {overflow-y:scroll;}
Looking for a way in CSS (in the child theme) to make a pop out from one div display over another, without blocking the links in the lower div when the pop-out is closed.
I am trying to use the Facebook Like Button with the comment pop-out on the pages of my site and have made the .widget-pad area of my section appropriately sized to display it when it pops up, so that it goes over another section and div that is containing a large image that links to another page.
However, when the Like button is unclicked and the pop-up is not displayed the linked area (silver part in this pick) is not-clickable.
The area below where the transparant div from the Like Button is still clickable.
How to make it so I can still click the links below where a popout happens on my page?
Ok I found the answer -- I needed to use CSS to select the .widget element and not the .widget-pad element I had been using before.
Note to all trying to deal with implementing Facebook Like in WordPress widget, something like this can help if you are having trouble getting the Comments pop-out to display over other <div>'s:
.widget{overflow: visible}
