Topic: Dropdown menu disappears on click, even on items within form
lisablu2020 asked 6 years ago
Expected behavior In Bootstrap 4, you can add a form element within a dropdown-menu, and clicking items within the form element will not cause the dropdown-menu to disappear.
For example:
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<form><div>Hi</div></form>
</ul>
The dropdown-menu will stay open even after clicking "Hi"
Actual behavior Angular MDB does not behave this way. Clicking items within a form element still caues the dropdown-menu to disappear.
Is there a way to prevent the dropdown-menu from disappearing when clicking on certain items within the menu?

You can prevent dropdown from closing with [autoClose]="false" input added to the element with mdbDropdown directive.
<div class="dropdown" mdbDropdown [autoClose]="false">
