Using CSS :target with Javascript

Question

Not sure if this can be done or not, but I'm banging my head trying to figure it out. So I have a pure CSS modal that utilizes :target to fire. However, I would like to use Javascript to add/remove a class to my Body when it is fired so I can prevent page scrolling behind the modal.

[data-am-modal] {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  overflow-x: hidden;
  overflow-y: auto;
  -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
  z-index: 999;
  width: 0;
  height: 0;
  opacity: 0;
}
[data-am-modal]:target {
  width: auto;
  height: auto;
  opacity: 1;
  -webkit-transition: opacity 400ms ease;
  transition: opacity 400ms ease;
}
[data-am-modal]:target .modal-overlay {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  cursor: default;
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
  z-index: 1;
}
[data-am-modal] .modal-dialog {
  position: relative;
  width: calc(100% - 30px);
  max-width: 600px;
  margin: 15px auto;
  z-index: 2;
}
[data-am-modal] .modal-content {
  background-color: white;
  padding: 30px;
}
[data-am-modal] .modal-close {
  position: absolute;
  top: 15px;
  right: 15px;
}

/* Base Styling */
body {
  margin: 0;
  font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
}

.link {
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 15px;
  background-color: #1e91c7;
  color: #fff;
  border-radius: 5px;
  text-decoration: none;
}

<a href="#modal-1" class="link">Open Modal</a>

You can listen to the hashchange event:

window.addEventListener('hashchange', (evt) =>
  document.body.classList.toggle('modal-on', location.hash === "#modal-1")
);

.modal-on {
  color: green;
}

[data-am-modal] {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  overflow-x: hidden;
  overflow-y: auto;
  -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
  z-index: 999;
  width: 0;
  height: 0;
  opacity: 0;
}

[data-am-modal]:target {
  width: auto;
  height: auto;
  opacity: 1;
  -webkit-transition: opacity 400ms ease;
  transition: opacity 400ms ease;
}

[data-am-modal]:target .modal-overlay {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  cursor: default;
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
  z-index: 1;
}

[data-am-modal] .modal-dialog {
  position: relative;
  width: calc(100% - 30px);
  max-width: 600px;
  margin: 15px auto;
  z-index: 2;
}

[data-am-modal] .modal-content {
  background-color: white;
  padding: 30px;
}

[data-am-modal] .modal-close {
  position: absolute;
  top: 15px;
  right: 15px;
}
