Why isn't my dropdown menu working as expected?

I don't understand why it's not working. Thanks for your help.

Update your data attribute names to the appropriate ones for Bootstrap 5.

You should maybe try changing the div tags around your dropdown and using the select tags as shown below :

<select class="dropdown-menu" 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>
</select>
