Submenus In Bootstrap 3 Adding Click Open Functions

I am trying to create submenus within Bootstrap 3 (which we all know have been removed) and I would like to display the 2nd and 3rd levels of the menu on a click instead of a hover.

For some reason every time I click on 2nd level or third level it simply closes the dropdown menu as if it is toggling the regular bootstrap open/close function.

I need to work in a manor... 1.) Click on Top level - display down-drop items 2.) Click on item from drop-down - displays 2nd level items 3.) Click on item from 2nd level - displays 3rd level items

basically i want to activate this css class 

.dropdown-submenu:hover>.dropdown-menu{display:block;}

on a click instead of a hover.

Currently i have tried the following

Link To Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/Tenacity/ejLDg/1/

Preferably can you should your solution on the fiddle. Feel free to rip this entire example apart to achieve a solution as i'm completely stuck. Thanks in advance.

The HTML

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
      <div class="navbar-header">
        <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
          <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="index.html">Your Logo Here</a>
      </div>
      <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
        <ul class="nav navbar-nav">           
            <li class="dropdown">
                <a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" id="test1">Top Level <b class="caret"></b></a>         
                <ul class="dropdown-menu">



                 <li class="dropdown-submenu">
                    <a tabindex="-1" href="#">To 2nd</a>
                    <ul class="dropdown-menu">
                      <li class="dropdown-submenu">
                        <a href="#">2nd to 3rd</a>
                        <ul class="dropdown-menu">
                            <li><a href="#">3rd level</a></li>
                        </ul>
                      </li>
                    </ul>
                  </li>
                </ul>
            </li>          
        </ul>
      </div>
    </nav>

The CSS

.dropdown-submenu{position:relative;}
.dropdown-submenu>.dropdown-menu{top:0;left:100%;margin-top:-6px;margin-left:-1px;-webkit-border-radius:0 6px 6px 6px;-moz-border-radius:0 6px 6px 6px;border-radius:0 6px 6px 6px;}
.dropdown-submenu:hover>.dropdown-menu{display:block;}
.dropdown-submenu>a:after{display:block;content:" ";float:right;width:0;height:0;border-color:transparent;border-style:solid;border-width:5px 0 5px 5px;border-left-color:#cccccc;margin-top:5px;margin-right:-10px;}

The JS

$(document).ready(function() {
   $('.dropdown-submenu').on('click', function(){
   $(this).parent().addClass('open');
   $(".btn-navbar").click();
   alert("clicked");
  });
});

Thanks in advance :D

take a look:

$( ".dropdown-submenu" ).click(function(event) {
    // stop bootstrap.js to hide the parents
    event.stopPropagation();
    // hide the open children
    $( this ).find(".dropdown-submenu").removeClass('open');
    // add 'open' class to all parents with class 'dropdown-submenu'
    $( this ).parents(".dropdown-submenu").addClass('open');
    // this is also open (or was)
    $( this ).toggleClass('open');
});
