JarCastingbootstrap-tabdrop
A dropdown tab tool for @twitter bootstrap forked from Stefan Petre's (of eyecon.ro),
The dropdown tab appears when your tabs do not all fit in the same row.
Original site and examples: http://www.eyecon.ro/bootstrap-tabdrop/
Added functionality: Displays the text of an active tab selected from the dropdown list instead of the text option on the dropdown tab.
Requirements
Example
No additional HTML needed - the script adds it when the dropdown tab is needed.
Using bootstrap-tabdrop.js Call the tab drop via javascript on .nav-tabs and .nav-pills:
$('.nav-pills, .nav-tabs').tabdrop()
Options
text
Type: string Default: icon
<i class="icon-align-justify"></i>
To change the default value, call
.tabdrop({text: "your text here"});
when initalizing the tabdrop. The displayed value will change when a tab is selected from the dropdown list.
Methods
.tabdrop(options)
Initializes an tab drop.
.tabdrop('layout')
Checks if the tabs fit in one single row.
Event
tabdrop.layout.complete
Triggered when the DOM updates are complete. This can be used to manually initialize the dropdown and the contained tabs.
$('.nav-tabs').tabdrop().on('tabdrop.layout.complete', function () {
// initialize dropdown
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown();
// initialize items
$('.dropdown-menu a[data-toggle="tab"]').click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();
$(this).tab('show');
});
});
