I have my html code as:
<button class="btn btn-default" id="openForm">
New
</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade hide" id="formModal">
<div class="modal-header">
<h4>
Form
</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body" id="formModalBody">
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<a href="#" data-dismiss="modal" class="btn">Close</a>
</div>
</div>
My Java script reads as:
$(document).on('click', '#openForm', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$("#formModalBody").html("");
$("#formModal").modal('show');
$.post('index.php/customers/view/-1/',
{id: -1},
function (html) {
$("#formModalBody").html(html);
}
);
});
I am using Twitter Bootstrap & Codeignitor. The post url above is index.php/Controller/function
When I am clicking on the button; I am not able to see the Bootstrap Modal. The page fades in, but there is no modal visible.

You should use anchor
link instead of button, it will work default settings
<a href="/model_link" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">
Launch demo modal
</a>
The href link response code will append in
<div class="modal-body" id="formModalBody">
<!-- modal body -->
</div>
