click outside bootstrap menu to close it

I tried to find solution to close bootstrap menu when clicking outside of it(in mobile window size), but cant get it to work, I get it to work when clicking one of the 'a' links by this code:
// menu buttons collapses when clicking a link
$('document').ready(function()
{
if ($('a').on('click', function()
{
$('.collapse, #mainContainer').removeClass('in');
$('.navbar-toggle').toggleClass('collapsed'); // button
}));
});
but how to close menu by clicking outside the menu navbar?
here's my page that shows the problem
iwebdesign.se
and yes i tried this already, not working:
similar question

Assuming you want to do something different when clicking outside of the menu (i.e. collapse the menu) than what happens when you click inside the menu, you probably want something like this to determine if you're clicking inside or outside of the menu:
$('body').click(function(event){
// check if the clicked element is a descendent of navigation
if ($(event.target).closest('.navigation').length) {
return; //do nothing if event target is within the navigation
} else {
// do something if the event target is outside the navigation
// code for collapsing menu here...
}
});
https://jsfiddle.net/L3qg4pa8/5/ shows the concept, roughly.
Of course, you will need to replace '.navigation' in the .closest() statement with the appropriate selector for the container of your navigation.

$(document).on('click',function(){
$('.collapse').collapse('hide');
});
Just copy the code and past your custome script or index.html

First dropdown menu not closing after hovering second menu

I get some issue when opening the menu1 dropdown and directly after mouseover the menu2 to open it without closing de menu1.
If I open the menu1 and move the cursor out from the nav to close the dropdown and then mouseover the menu2 it works fine.
If I go directly from menu1 to menu2 or inversely, the menu2 dropdown appear under the menu1 dropdown.
I thinks that I have a mistake in my html or it can be fix with a jquery function but I don't know how to solve this. I wish to add more menu, in the actually there are only two.
I hope that you understand my problem,
Any help would be appreciated
$(document).ready(function () {
var menu = $('.menu')
menu.hide();
$("#mainbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideDown("fast");
});
$("#nav").mouseleave(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
var menu2 = $('.menu2')
menu2.hide();
$("#secondboutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideDown("fast");
});
$("#nav").mouseleave(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
});
Here the JSFiddle

I would suggest to add a general class name to all menus .menu and a specific selector for each individual menu (#menu1 or .menu1) as well as an indicator for the active state .active. this way you can simply close all .menu.active
see the following fiddle as a simple proof of concept:
https://jsfiddle.net/ad3a5qyw/2/
EDIT:
I've abstracted the fiddle so you can add data-menu attributes to the nav-items to indicate the associated menu.

I see what's going on here:
It's easy with jQuery and the code you've written already, and here's an example with a new menu item to show how easy it is: https://jsfiddle.net/xyqoj24m/2/
What's going on is that the mouseleave functions are only run when the mouse leaves the entire #nav element. So what needs to be done is handle the hiding/showing of the menus like so:
When the mouse hovers over a menu item, close all other dropdowns and show the correct one.
When the mouse leaves the dropdown or the menu item, close the dropdown.
Take a look at this Javascript and see what that means:
$("#mainbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideDown("fast");
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
$(".menu3").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
$("#secondbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideDown("fast");
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
$(".menu3").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
// leave the first menu dropdown
$("#mainbutton, .menu").mouseleave(function() {
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
// leave the second menu dropdown
$("#secondbutton, .menu2").mouseleave(function() {
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
});

Jquery open and close within a parent div

The title does not explain that well, essentially I have 8 divs the same, with the same class for css styling.
They all have hidden content, I want to be able to only expand one div at a time without using different classes or identifiers for each div and hidden content.
I have tried to display this on Jsfidle using two divs the same , however I can't even get it to fire on jsfiddle for some reason
http://jsfiddle.net/dAXJ2/8/
$(document).on('click',".servicereadmore",function() {
//var x = $(this).closest('div').attr('class')
//$('.hiddenservices').parent(x).slideDown(1000);
$('.hiddenservices').slideDown(1000);
$(this).html("Read less");
$(this).removeClass("servicereadmore");
$(this).addClass("servicereadless");
});
$(document).on('click', ".servicereadless" ,function() {
$('.hiddenservices').slideUp(1000);
$(this).html("Read more");
$(this).removeClass("servicereadless");
$(this).addClass("servicereadmore");
});
That currently works above but opens all the hidden text as stated, the comments are were I have been trying to only expand within the parent div of the button I pressed

Your clickable <a> tags should probably be buttons, since that's the role they're in. Also, your functions aren't working currently because you've added
return false;
as the first statement of each one. That prevents any of the code after that from ever running. Instead of that, either change those <a> links to <button type=button> or else add a parameter to the handlers ("e" or "event") and call
e.preventDefault();
in the handler.
To affect only the portion of the page relevant to the "Read More" links, you just need to navigate the DOM:
$(this).closest('.myinfo').find('.hiddenservices').slideDown(1000);
That means: "staring from the clicked element, climb up the DOM to find the closest element with class 'myinfo', and then from that point down find all the elements with class 'hiddenservices' and slide them down."
A couple of other problems: you'll need to start the "hiddenservices" sections off as hidden, or otherwise not visible somehow. Also, another issue with your jsfiddle was that you didn't have jQuery selected. That's something you could quickly learn just by checking the error console.
Here is a repaired jsfiddle.

You dont have to use that much of code for this purpose. USe simply like
$(document).on('click', ".servicereadmore", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
if ($(this).parent().find('.hiddenservices').is(":visible")) {
$(this).html("Read more");
} else {
$(this).html("Read less");
}
$(this).parent().find('.hiddenservices').slideToggle(1000);
});
Instead of adding and removing the class name, you can just use slideToggle().

Jquery click function exclude children

Hey I'm having an issue figuring this one out.
JS
$('.jrm-menu-categories,#overlay-2').click(function() {
$('#overlay-2').toggle();
$('#overlay-3').hide();
});
HTML
<ul id="megaUber" class="megaMenu">
<li id="menu-item-1459" class="jrm-menu-categories">
<ul class="sub-menu sub-menu-1">
So basically what my JS does is create an overlay/modal effect when a sub menu is opened via click. I have the code repeated a few times with different classes and overlay ids hence the last line of code (needed so that only one overlay is shown at a time). Quickest and simplest way for a beginner like me, but that's not the subject.
When a sub-menu is open, and a user clicks anywhere in the sub-menu it toggles the overlay. I'm assuming this is because when I selected .jrm-menu-categories in the JS, it also selected the child elements, which happen to be .sub-menu
I'm thinking I need to use the .not() function, but can't figure it out.
can you guys help me with this? if possible write the code so I can try it out
Thanks!

You can try adding a second click handler to the children that will always return false. That way the click won't propagate up and dismiss:
$('.jrm-menu-categories').children('.sub-menu').click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation(); // prevent click propagation, so parent click never fires.
})

You can test for the clicked item.
$('.jrm-menu-categories,#overlay-2').click(function(e) {
if (this == e.target){
$('#overlay-2').toggle();
$('#overlay-3').hide();
}
});

jQuery - Toggle a panel closed on click of outside element, only if panel is visible

I'm working on this site: http://dev.rjlacount.com/treinaAronson/index.php
My final to-do is to set the contact panel (which you can see if you click the top left "contact" button) to close if it's currently open and the user either clicks outside of the panel (in the "#content" area) or hits the esc key.
I figured the clicking in the #content area trigger would be the easier of the two, so I started with that. I've read a couple threads on triggering functions only if elements are visible, but what I've come up with so far isn't working at all:
$("#panel").is(":visible") {
$("#content").click(function(){
$("#panel").slideToggle("3000");
});
};
This breaks the functionality of the contact button, and I've tried several variations of this to no avail. Am I making any glaring errors here? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Bind Click and Keydown functions to the document and make sure the click function doesn't bubble up to the document when your panel or flip buttons are clicked. Like so:
$(document).bind({
keydown:function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 27 ) {
$("#panel").slideUp("3000");
}
}, click: function(e) {
$("#panel").slideUp("3000");
}
});
$('#flip, #panel').bind('click', function(e){return false});

Why don't you add a class to the body of the page when the panel is opened and remove it when it's closed? That makes this much simpler:
$('.class #content').click(function(){
// Close the contact panel
});
Now, when the body has a class of 'class', any click on the #content div will automatically close contact.
Make sense? Great looking site, by the way.

$('#flip').bind('click', function(){
$(this).toggleClass('contactOpen');
$("#panel").slideToggle("3000");
});
$('#content').bind('click', function(){
if($('#flip').hasClass('contactOpen')){
$(this).toggleClass('contactOpen');
$("#panel").slideToggle("3000");
}
});
