我是这样做的:

$('ul.nav li.dropdown').hover(function(){
       $(this).children('ul.dropdown-menu').slideDown(); 
    }, function(){
       $(this).children('ul.dropdown-menu').slideUp(); 
});

我希望这能帮助到一些人……

在我看来，最好的办法是这样的:

;(function($, window, undefined) {
    // Outside the scope of the jQuery plugin to
    // keep track of all dropdowns
    var $allDropdowns = $();

    // If instantlyCloseOthers is true, then it will instantly
    // shut other nav items when a new one is hovered over
    $.fn.dropdownHover = function(options) {

        // The element we really care about
        // is the dropdown-toggle's parent
        $allDropdowns = $allDropdowns.add(this.parent());

        return this.each(function() {
            var $this = $(this),
                $parent = $this.parent(),
                defaults = {
                    delay: 500,
                    instantlyCloseOthers: true
                },
                data = {
                    delay: $(this).data('delay'),
                    instantlyCloseOthers: $(this).data('close-others')
                },
                settings = $.extend(true, {}, defaults, options, data),
                timeout;

            $parent.hover(function(event) {

                // So a neighbor can't open the dropdown
                if(!$parent.hasClass('open') && !$this.is(event.target)) {
                    return true;
                }

                if(settings.instantlyCloseOthers === true)
                    $allDropdowns.removeClass('open');

                window.clearTimeout(timeout);
                $parent.addClass('open');
            }, function() {
                timeout = window.setTimeout(function() {
                    $parent.removeClass('open');
                }, settings.delay);
            });

            // This helps with button groups!
            $this.hover(function() {
                if(settings.instantlyCloseOthers === true)
                    $allDropdowns.removeClass('open');

                window.clearTimeout(timeout);
                $parent.addClass('open');
            });

            // Handle submenus
            $parent.find('.dropdown-submenu').each(function(){
                var $this = $(this);
                var subTimeout;
                $this.hover(function() {
                    window.clearTimeout(subTimeout);
                    $this.children('.dropdown-menu').show();

                    // Always close submenu siblings instantly
                    $this.siblings().children('.dropdown-menu').hide();
                }, function() {
                    var $submenu = $this.children('.dropdown-menu');
                    subTimeout = window.setTimeout(function() {
                        $submenu.hide();
                    }, settings.delay);
                });
            });
        });
    };

    $(document).ready(function() {
        // apply dropdownHover to all elements with the data-hover="dropdown" attribute
        $('[data-hover="dropdown"]').dropdownHover();
    });
})(jQuery, this);

            <li><a href="#">One more separated link</a></li>
          </ul>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <script>
        $('ul.nav li.dropdown').hover(function() {
        $(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, 
        true).delay(200).fadeIn(500);
        }, function() {
        $(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true,

为了让菜单在悬停时自动下落，这可以使用基本的CSS实现。您需要计算出隐藏菜单选项的选择器，然后将其设置为在适当的li标记悬停时显示为块。以twitter引导页面为例，选择器如下所示:

ul.nav li.dropdown:hover > ul.dropdown-menu {
    display: block;    
}

然而，如果你正在使用Bootstrap的响应特性，你将不希望这个功能出现在折叠的导航栏上(在较小的屏幕上)。为了避免这种情况，可以将上面的代码包装在媒体查询中:

@media (min-width: 979px) {
  ul.nav li.dropdown:hover > ul.dropdown-menu {
    display: block;
  }
}

要隐藏箭头(插入符号)，这取决于你是使用Twitter Bootstrap版本2或更低版本3，以不同的方式完成:

引导3

要在版本3中删除插入符号，你只需要从.dropdown-toggle锚定元素中删除HTML <b class="插入符号"></b>:

<a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#">
    Dropdown
    <b class="caret"></b>    <-- remove this line
</a>

Bootstrap 2 &更低

要删除版本2中的插入符号，您需要对CSS有更多的了解，我建议更详细地了解:after伪元素是如何工作的。为了让你开始理解，在推特引导例子中瞄准并删除箭头，你将使用以下CSS选择器和代码:

a.menu:after, .dropdown-toggle:after {
    content: none;
}

如果你深入研究这些方法，而不是仅仅使用我给你的答案，这会对你有利。

感谢@CocaAkat指出，我们错过了“>”子组合子，以防止子菜单显示在父悬停

内联使用两个链接。用下拉按钮隐藏链接，并在可见链接上添加onmouseover事件以单击下拉菜单。

<a class="pretty-button"
   href="#" alt="Notifications"
   onmouseover="$('#notifications-dropdown').click()">
</a>

<a style="display:none"
   id="notifications-dropdown"
   class="js-nav js-tooltip js-dynamic-tooltip"
   href="#"
   alt="Notifications"
   data-toggle="dropdown">
   <span class="fa fa-flag fa-2x"></span>
</a>
