As you can see here, I have a button that launches a modal. Setting an href url for the button this url is automatically loaded into modal by Bootstrap 3. The fact is this page is loaded into modal root (as said in the bootstrap 3 documentation for modals usage). I want to load it into the modal-body instead.
Is there a way to do it via attributes (not javascript)? Or what is the most automatic way to do it?
P.S. I remember in Bootstrap 2 the content was loaded in the body, not the root.
This question is related to
ajax
twitter-bootstrap
twitter-bootstrap-3
modal-dialog
This is actually super simple with just a little bit of added javascript. The link's href is used as the ajax content source. Note that for Bootstrap 3.* we set data-remote="false" to disable the deprecated Bootstrap load function.
JavaScript:
// Fill modal with content from link href
$("#myModal").on("show.bs.modal", function(e) {
var link = $(e.relatedTarget);
$(this).find(".modal-body").load(link.attr("href"));
});
Html (based on the official example):
<!-- Link trigger modal -->
<a href="remoteContent.html" data-remote="false" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal" class="btn btn-default">
Launch Modal
</a>
<!-- Default bootstrap modal example -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">×</span></button>
<h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">Modal title</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
...
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

I guess you're searching for this custom function. It takes a data-toggle attribute and creates dynamically the necessary div to place the remote content. Just place the data-toggle="ajaxModal" on any link you want to load via AJAX.
The JS part:
$('[data-toggle="ajaxModal"]').on('click',
function(e) {
$('#ajaxModal').remove();
e.preventDefault();
var $this = $(this)
, $remote = $this.data('remote') || $this.attr('href')
, $modal = $('<div class="modal" id="ajaxModal"><div class="modal-body"></div></div>');
$('body').append($modal);
$modal.modal({backdrop: 'static', keyboard: false});
$modal.load($remote);
}
);
Finally, in the remote content, you need to put the entire structure to work.
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title"></h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<a href="#" class="btn btn-white" data-dismiss="modal">Close</a>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Button</a>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Another button...</a>
</div>
</div><!-- /.modal-content -->
</div><!-- /.modal-dialog -->
In the case where you need to update the same modal with content from different Ajax / API calls here's a working solution.
$('.btn-action').click(function(){
var url = $(this).data("url");
$.ajax({
url: url,
dataType: 'json',
success: function(res) {
// get the ajax response data
var data = res.body;
// update modal content here
// you may want to format data or
// update other modal elements here too
$('.modal-body').text(data);
// show modal
$('#myModal').modal('show');
},
error:function(request, status, error) {
console.log("ajax call went wrong:" + request.responseText);
}
});
});
A simple way to use modals is with eModal!
Ex from github:
<script src="//rawgit.com/saribe/eModal/master/dist/eModal.min.js"></script>use eModal to display a modal for alert, ajax, prompt or confirm
// Display an alert modal with default title (Attention)
eModal.ajax('your/url.html');
$(document).ready(function () {/* activate scroll spy menu */_x000D_

</div>create an empty modal box on the current page and below is the ajax call you can see how to fetch the content in result from another html page.
$.ajax({url: "registration.html", success: function(result){
//alert("success"+result);
$("#contentBody").html(result);
$("#myModal").modal('show');
}});
once the call is done you will get the content of the page by the result to then you can insert the code in you modal's content id using.
You can call controller and get the page content and you can show that in your modal.
below is the example of Bootstrap 3 modal in that we are loading content from registration.html page...
