I'm currently working with a bootstrap v.4 navbar that has 3 elements in it. I've managed to align the elements evenly so that the search bar is centered in the navbar. However, when it collapses it takes up the full width of the screen.
Here is the current HTML:
<nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-sm navbar-light bg-faded">
<button class="navbar-toggler navbar-toggler-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbar5">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<a href="/" class="navbar-brand">Brand</a>
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse justify-content-stretch" id="navbar5">
<form class="mx-2 my-auto d-inline w-100">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="...">
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary" type="button">GO</button>
</span>
</div>
</form>
<ul class="navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item dropdown">
<a class="nav-link" href="http://example.com" id="navbarDropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
<i class="ion-ios-gear-outline"></i>
</a>
<div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right" aria-labelledby="navbarDropdownMenuLink">
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
The issue arises when I use a value less than w-100, as the menu icon gets pulled next to the search bar instead of being in the right corner where I want it. How can I fix this? I'd like to achieve a layout similar to this.
