Bootstrap modal call from fullcalendar event click

I have a fullcalendar on my page. On it I have an add event button. That calls a javascript function that opens a modal view allowing the user to add an event.

function showAddMeeting() {
    var current_date = $('#calendar').fullCalendar('getDate');
    $("#modal").load('modal.php?type=meeting&action=add&date='+current_date);
}

This works perfectly. Now, I have another function to edit the meeting:

function showEditMeeting(meeting_id) {
    alert('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id);
    $("#modal").load('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id);
}

When I put this on the button, it works fine. But when I add it as a function to the event, it does not work.

eventClick: function(event) {
    showEditMeeting(event['id']);
}

When I click the event, I get the alert of the working link, but I never get a modal popover.

EDIT:

I've figured out it's because I'm not calling 

 data-toggle="modal" data-target="#modal"

Does anybody know of how to call that through javascript?

Bootstrap has all the methods available for the modal in "modal.js", this is included in the minified pack.

You need to use it as follows.

Original

function showEditMeeting(meeting_id) {
    alert('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id);
    $("#modal").load('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id);
}

Becomes

function showEditMeeting(meeting_id) {
    alert('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id);
    $("#modal").load('modal.php?type=meeting&action=edit&id='+meeting_id).modal('show');
}

Notice the additional .modal('show');

Please note, I've not tested this code.
