  <h3 id="dropdowns-example">Example</h3>

  <div class="bs-example">
    <div class="dropdown clearfix">
      <button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu1" data-toggle="dropdown">
        Dropdown

  <h3 id="dropdowns-alignment">Alignment</h3>
  <p>By default, a dropdown menu is automatically positioned 100% from the top and along the left side of its parent. Add <code>.dropdown-menu-right</code> to a <code>.dropdown-menu</code> to right align the dropdown menu.</p>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-warning">
    <h4>May require additional positioning</h4>
    <p>Dropdowns are automatically positioned via CSS within the normal flow of the document. This means dropdowns may be cropped by parents with certain <code>overflow</code> properties or appear out of bounds of the viewport. Address these issues on your own as they arise.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-warning">
    <h4>Deprecated <code>.pull-right</code> alignment</h4>
    <p>As of v3.1.0, we've deprecated <code>.pull-right</code> on dropdown menus. To right-align a menu, use <code>.dropdown-menu-right</code>. Right-aligned nav components in the navbar use a mixin version of this class to automatically align the menu. To override it, use <code>.dropdown-menu-left</code>.</p>
  </div>

<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dLabel">

  <h3 id="dropdowns-headers">Headers</h3>
  <p>Add a header to label sections of actions in any dropdown menu.</p>
  <div class="bs-example">
