I am facing trouble with the Cart file as it does not open when I click on the Cart hyperlink. I have double-checked the path and it appears to be correct.

Here is the code snippet from the master file:

<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
        <div class="container-fluid">
            <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right pull-right">
                <li>
                    <a href="Cart/Cart.aspx" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" role="button" aria-expanded="false">
                        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-shopping-cart"></span><asp:Label ID="CartCountL" runat="server" CssClass="badge badge-warning" text="2"/>
                    </a>
                </li>
            </ul>

            <div class="navbar-header">
              <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1" aria-expanded="false">
                <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
                <span class="icon-bar"></span>
              </button>
              <a class="navbar-brand" href="/UI/Home.aspx">
                  <img id="MMLogo" src="/Images/Logo/MM.jpg" alt="MurkyMuse Logo" Title="MurkyMuse Logo" />
              </a>
            </div>
            
            <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
              <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
                <li><a href="/UI/Home.aspx">HOME<span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a></li>
                <li class="dropdown">

                      </ul>
                </li>
                <li><a href="/UI/Shop/Shop.aspx">SHOP</a></li>
                
                <li class="dropdown">

                          <li><a href="/UI/ComingSoon.aspx">MEDIA</a></li>
                      </ul>
                </li>
                <li><a href="/UI/Contact.aspx">CONTACT</a></li>
              </ul>
            </div>
        </div>
    </nav>

Answer №1

If you notice that the Cart menu item is not functioning like a regular link, it may be due to the presence of data-toggle="dropdown" in its definition. This attribute is typically used for dropdown functionality in Bootstrap, causing the click event listeners to utilize Event.preventDefault() and overriding the default linking behavior.

To address this issue and make the Cart item act as a standard link when there is no dropdown intended, simply remove the data-toggle="dropdown" attribute and the .dropdown-toggle class from the element, and it should begin working as expected.
