Twitter-Bootstrap Modal on Modal custom close

Question

Using the twitter bootstrap framework for web application. I am using a modal in which I call another modal, having 1 modal on top of the other modal. Currently if you click the close 'x' button it closes both modal windows. I only want to close the top modal.

The Modal class Definition starts on line 750 in bootstrap.js.

Modal HTML

<div class="modal fade hide modal-creator" id="myModal_crop_image" style="display: none;height:600px;" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" data-target="#myModal_crop_image">×</button>
        <h3>Create New Gallery</h3>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-body">
        <img style="height:50%;" src="<?php echo base_url(); ?>data/001/images/album/014.jpg" alt="" />
    </div><!-- /modal-body -->

    <div class="modal-footer">

</div>

BootStrap JS

!function ($) {

  "use strict"; // jshint ;_;

Here is a link to the js. http://jsfiddle.net/dazaweb/5cR95/

Any ideas on how I go about this?

Answer 1

Alternative

$('#myModal .close').click();

Answer 2

Add to modal hide method (top most line)

e & e.stopPropogation();

This will stop from bubbling event to parents and rest of children.

Also, pass event param in hide() (so that it becomes hide(e)) inside escape method.

Answer 3

1. In cancel and close button remove this: data-dismiss="modal";
2. Then add a class, for example: "close_modal";
3. In javascript create a delegate function like below:

Javascript:

$(document).on('click', 'button:button.close_modal', function ( event ) {
  event.preventDefault();
  var $this = $(event.currentTarget);
  var modalId = $this.closest('div.modal').attr('id');
  $('#'+modalId+'').modal('hide');
});

Answer 4

In your modal definition where you have data-dismiss="modal", add data-target="#theIdOfTheModal"

This will tell it to only close that specific modal

I created a fiddle demonstrating this and it actually works with or without data-target: Fiddle!
