How can I stop Toggle menu triggering on click of sub menu items

I am trying to implement a basic toggle menu after the last has stopped working but no matter how much I try to narrow down the CSS selector, the sub menu items ALWAYS toggle the menu on click for the mobile menu and therefore you cannot click through.
My JS is:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#menu-item-1837').click(function(e) {
jQuery('#menu-item-1837 > ul').slideToggle(500);
e.preventDefault();
});
});
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#menu-item-1832').click(function(e) {
jQuery('#menu-item-1832 > ul').slideToggle(500);
e.preventDefault();
});
});
I have tried all sorts of variations including targeting using:
#menu-item-1837 a:first-child
.menu-item-has-children > a
a#menu-item-1837
I can't work out why it isn't working
I have also tried variations of targeting the sub-menu but it never works
Any help would be appreciated

Close menu when another item is hovered

I am creating a menu with two dropdowns. I need the dropdowns to open when the menu item is hovered over, but close if the other menu item is hovered over.
The problem I am having is getting the first dropdown to close if I hover over the second menu item.
Please see my fiddle here: http://www.bootply.com/uEKWCdNj4C
I've looked through other questions, and this one seems to possibly be of use, but I'm having trouble applying it to my situation: Vertical Menu to stay open on hover then close when another is hovered
So I apologize if this is a duplicate...any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You can call slideup on the open ul before calling slidedown on the current one. like below
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".nav-basic").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-basic').slideDown('medium');
});
$('ul.menu-basic').bind('mouseleave', function(){
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideDown('medium');
});
$('ul.menu-applied').bind('mouseleave', function(){
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
});
});

You just needed to update your script to call the slideUp function:
$(".nav-basic").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideDown('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideDown('medium');
});

Your code could use some optimization, but you could basically call slideUp() on all other $(.menu-interior') elements that are not of the target class:
Example: $('.menu-interior:not(.menu-basic)').slideUp();
See forked fiddle here: http://www.bootply.com/DZxktgUtjh
Note: This will close ANY other open menu, rather than having to hard-code all other classes when the menu grows.

So set an class="isHovered" on the element that is hovered.
Set the boxes class="isHovered" aswell ..
If hover is called again , or lets say mouseenter, you check if isHovered is set on the current box and on the other box ... or iterate over any boxes there might be ...
You could aswell store the currently hovered element id in a variable and the box id. Then use these values. As JS is not multithreaded you can rely on the order of execution ...

$(document).ready(function() {
$(".nav-basic").hover(function() {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideToggle('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function() {
$('ul.menu-applied').slideToggle('medium');
});
});

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

selecting current anchor with jquery on the same page

is there a way to select the current anchor and have it visible on every section of a one page site? For example all my pages (home/contact/shop etc) are on one page, in a horizontally scrolling layout. When I select the anchor, it highlights the current anchor but does not keep that anchor highlighted when it scrolls to the next section of the page. Instead its highlighted and as the scroll begins the highlight of the anchor disappears. Here's the code I am using:
$('#nav a').click(function() {
alert($(this).attr('href'));
});
I had thought about using jquery ui to do it, but it seems a little too much just to carry out this operation. So highlight the current anchor of the item, in the same page, but when scrolling to a different section remaining highlighted. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance

I guess you are talking about the default overlay on focus that happens when you click an anchor?
How about adding a class to the currently active section instead:
$("#nav a").click(function() {
var self = $(this), className = "active";
self.addClass(className).siblings("."+className).removeClass(className);
...
});
You might also want to check this answer since it could be related. If this answer is not helpful to you my advice is to create a test case on jsFiddle to help you describe your problem further.

Like this?
JS:
$('#nav a').click(function(){
$('#nav a').removeClass('highlighted');
$(this).addClass('highlighted');
});
CSS:
.highlighted {
background: #ffffeo;
}

Jquery dropdown menu using toggle and hover() problem

So I am trying to create a drop down menu using .hover() and .toggle(). While Have managed to get the menu to appear when the user rolls over the link, it disappears when the user moves off the link to select an item from the menu. Is there a method or technique for keeping the menu toggled even when the user isn't still hovering over the link?
Here is the JS:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#menu_link").hover(function () {
$("#the_menu").toggle();
});
});
</script>

Put the menu element inside the link.

The solution can vary greatly depending on the HTML markup you're using. But a general solution to these kinds of things is to let the body element detect "mouseenters" and detect which element the event originated from. If it's not either #menu_link or #the_menu, then hide the menu.
$("body").mouseenter(function (e) {
var eventParents = $(e.target()).parents();
if (eventParents.index($("#menu_link")) == -1 &&
eventParents.index($("#the_menu")) == -1) {
$("#the_menu").hide();
}
});
$("#menu_link").mouseenter(function () {
$("#the_menu").show();
});
This gives you flexibility in, for example, placing the menu link in a different container div to the menu itself.
