Answer a question

I am using React-Bootstrap DropDown with an Input inside a MenuItem (otherwise the console yells at me Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'focus' of undefined)

Okay so the drop down renders, and the input is inside a menu item (all is well) except when I click inside the input, the dropdown closes.

Here is my JSX

<Bootstrap.DropdownButton title={this.state.callIdTitle} id="callId">
  <Bootstrap.MenuItem eventKey='1'>
   <input ref="callIdInput" type='text' eventKey='2' placeholder='Enter Call ID' />
  </Bootstrap.MenuItem>
</Bootstrap.DropdownButton>

Any pointing in the right direction is very much appreciated, I have been trying to solve this all day.

Thank you.

After all day...this is what I came up with.

I hope there's a better way.

    <Bootstrap.DropdownButton onClick={this.setFocusToCallIdInput} title={this.state.callIdTitle}>
      <Bootstrap.MenuItem href="javascript:void(0);" eventKey='1'>
        <Bootstrap.Input onClick={this.dontCloseMeBro} ref="callIdInput" type='text' onChange={this.callIdInputSelected} placeholder='Enter Call ID' />
      </Bootstrap.MenuItem>
    </Bootstrap.DropdownButton>



setFocusToCallIdInput:function(e){
    console.log("Call Id clicked");     
    React.findDOMNode(this.refs.callIdInput).focus();
    e.stopPropagation();
    e.nativeEvent.stopImmediatePropagation();
},
dontCloseMeBro:function(e){
    console.log("menu item clicked");       
    React.findDOMNode(this.refs.callIdInput).focus();
    e.stopPropagation();
    e.nativeEvent.stopImmediatePropagation();
},
