      <h1>Bootstrap: Dropdown on Hover Plugin Demo</h1>
      <p>Hover over the nav items to see that they activate on hover. I'm setting the instantlyCloseOthers flag to true, so when you hover over a new nav item, the other ones instantly close (instead of waiting for their timeouts). See <a href="http://cameronspear.com/blog/bootstrap-dropdown-on-hover-plugin/">cameronspear.com/blog/bootstrap-dropdown-on-hover-plugin/</a> for more.</p>
