Bootstrap toggle button is not working

The toggle button is not working to reveal the collapsed elements and I do not know why. When the window is resized the toggle button is displayed but upon pressing, nothing happens. This is my first time using Bootstrap so I may have made some very obvious and ridiculous mistakes. Any help is appreciated.

    <div class="nav navbar-default">
      <div class="container"></div>

      </li>
      <li>
        <a class="cart" href="#7"></a>
      </li>

      <button class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" data-target="navHeaderCollapse">

        <span class="icon-bar"></span>

Solution

  • You have at least a few problems: See the docs for the Navbar.

    data-toggle="dropdown" should be data-toggle="collapse"

    data-target="navHeaderCollapse" should be data-target=".navHeaderCollapse"

    Fixing these two issues should allow the menu to open and close. You may want to utilize the default structure to avoid (or at least be aware of) additional issues live enclosing your toggle button inside the navbar-header class as well as the .nav & .navbar-nav classes on your menu list items. Also your container isn't doing anything currently, it should surround the navbar-header / list items.

    Working Example:

    <link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

<div class="boostrap-iso">
  <div class="page">

    <div class="nav navbar-default">
      <div class="container">

        <div class="navbar-header">
          <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navHeaderCollapse">
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
          </button>

          <a href="#" class="navbar-brand">LOGO</a>
          <a href="#" class="navbar-brand"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-shopping-cart"></span></a>
        </div>

        <div class="collapse navbar-collapse navHeaderCollapse">
          <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
            <li class="products"><a href="#2">Products</a>
            </li>
            <li class="store"><a href="#3">Store</a>
            </li>
            <li class="about"><a href="#4">About Us</a>
            </li>
            <li class="discover"><a href="#5">Discover</a>
            </li>
            <li class="support"><a href="#6">Support</a>
            </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
