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);

样本的标记:

<li class="dropdown">
    <a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" data-hover="dropdown" data-delay="1000" data-close-others="false">
        Account <b class="caret"></b>
    </a>
    <ul class="dropdown-menu">
        <li><a tabindex="-1" href="#">My Account</a></li>
        <li class="divider"></li>
        <li><a tabindex="-1" href="#">Change Email</a></li>
        <li><a tabindex="-1" href="#">Change Password</a></li>
        <li class="divider"></li>
        <li><a tabindex="-1" href="#">Logout</a></li>
    </ul>
</li>

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>

我基于最新的(v2.0.2) Bootstrap框架创建了一个纯悬停下拉菜单，它支持多个子菜单，我认为我应该发布给未来的用户:

body { padding-top: 60px; padding-bottom: 40px; } .sidebar-nav { padding: 9px 0; } .dropdown-menu .sub-menu { left: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0; visibility: hidden; margin-top: -1px; } .dropdown-menu li:hover .sub-menu { visibility: visible; } .dropdown:hover .dropdown-menu { display: block; } .nav-tabs .dropdown-menu, .nav-pills .dropdown-menu, .navbar .dropdown-menu { margin-top: 0; } .navbar .sub-menu:before { border-bottom: 7px solid transparent; border-left: none; border-right: 7px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); border-top: 7px solid transparent; left: -7px; top: 10px; } .navbar .sub-menu:after { border-top: 6px solid transparent; border-left: none; border-right: 6px solid #fff; border-bottom: 6px solid transparent; left: 10px; top: 11px; left: -6px; } <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/2.3.2/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top"> <div class="navbar-inner"> <div class="container-fluid"> <a data-target=".nav-collapse" data-toggle="collapse" class="btn btn-navbar"> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> </a> <a href="#" class="brand">Project name</a> <div class="nav-collapse"> <ul class="nav"> <li class="active"><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li class="dropdown"> <a data-toggle="dropdown" class="dropdown-toggle" href="#">Dropdown <b class="caret"></b></a> <ul class="dropdown-menu"> <li> <a href="#">2-level Dropdown <i class="icon-arrow-right"></i></a> <ul class="dropdown-menu sub-menu"> <li><a href="#">Action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li> <li class="divider"></li> <li class="nav-header">Nav header</li> <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li> <li><a href="#">One more separated link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li> <li class="divider"></li> <li class="nav-header">Nav header</li> <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li> <li><a href="#">One more separated link</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <form action="" class="navbar-search pull-left"> <input type="text" placeholder="Search" class="search-query span2"> </form> <ul class="nav pull-right"> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li class="divider-vertical"></li> <li class="dropdown"> <a class="#" href="#">Menu</a> </li> </ul> </div> <!-- /.nav-collapse --> </div> </div> </div> <hr> <ul class="nav nav-pills"> <li class="active"><a href="#">Regular link</a></li> <li class="dropdown"> <a href="#" data-toggle="dropdown" class="dropdown-toggle">Dropdown <b class="caret"></b></a> <ul class="dropdown-menu" id="menu1"> <li> <a href="#">2-level Menu <i class="icon-arrow-right"></i></a> <ul class="dropdown-menu sub-menu"> <li><a href="#">Action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li> <li class="divider"></li> <li class="nav-header">Nav header</li> <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li> <li><a href="#">One more separated link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li> <li><a href="#">Something else here</a></li> <li class="divider"></li> <li><a href="#">Separated link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="dropdown"> <a href="#">Menu</a> </li> <li class="dropdown"> <a href="#">Menu</a> </li> </ul>

Demo

版本2的解决方案非常简单，只有CSS。 保持相同的友好功能的手机和平板电脑。

@media (min-width: 980px) {
    .dropdown:hover .dropdown-menu {
       display: block;
    }
}

jQuery的解决方案是好的，但它将需要处理点击事件(移动或平板电脑)悬停将无法正常工作…也许可以做一些窗口重新大小检测?

安德烈斯·伊里奇的回答似乎很有效，但它应该被包装在一个媒体问题中:

@media (min-width: 980px) {

    .dropdown-menu .sub-menu {
        left: 100%;
        position: absolute;
        top: 0;
        visibility: hidden;
        margin-top: -1px;
    }

    .dropdown-menu li:hover .sub-menu {
        visibility: visible;
    }

    .dropdown:hover .dropdown-menu {
        display: block;
    }

    .nav-tabs .dropdown-menu, .nav-pills .dropdown-menu, .navbar .dropdown-menu {
        margin-top: 0;
    }

    .navbar .sub-menu:before {
        border-bottom: 7px solid transparent;
        border-left: none;
        border-right: 7px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
        border-top: 7px solid transparent;
        left: -7px;
        top: 10px;
    }
    .navbar .sub-menu:after {
        border-top: 6px solid transparent;
        border-left: none;
        border-right: 6px solid #fff;
        border-bottom: 6px solid transparent;
        left: 10px;
        top: 11px;
        left: -6px;
    }
}

我们看到，除了“My Head Hurts”的答案，“Cory Price”还发现了两个问题:

问题1:单击下拉链接将打开下拉菜单。它会一直打开，除非用户点击某个地方 或者返回到它上面，创建一个尴尬的UI。 解决方案:从导航链接中删除“class”和“data-toggle”元素

这个解决方案近乎完美，但这里的问题是，当涉及到移动设备和平板电脑时，它就行不通了!

我使用了一些jQuery代码来修复这个问题..

if ($(window).width() > 769) {
    $('.dropdown-toggle').removeAttr('data-toggle');
    $('.dropdown-menu').removeAttr('style');
    $('.dropdown').removeClass('open');
}
$(window).resize(function () {
    if ($(window).width() > 769) {
        $('.dropdown-toggle').removeAttr('data-toggle');
        $('.dropdown-menu').removeAttr('style');
        $('.dropdown').removeClass('open');
    }
    else {
        $('.dropdown-toggle').attr("data-toggle", "dropdown");
    }
});

注意:这里我们假设移动设备和平板电脑的折痕从768px开始。
