Here is a snippet for not only closing modals without page refresh but when pressing enter it submits modal and closes without refresh
I have it set up on my site where I can have multiple modals and some modals process data on submit and some don't. What I do is create a unique ID for each modal that does processing. For example in my webpage:
HTML (modal footer):
<div class="modal-footer form-footer"><br>
<span class="caption">
<button id="PreLoadOrders" class="btn btn-md green btn-right" type="button" disabled>Add to Cart <i class="fa fa-shopping-cart"></i></button>
<button id="ClrHist" class="btn btn-md red btn-right" data-dismiss="modal" data-original-title="" title="Return to Scan Order Entry" type="cancel">Cancel <i class="fa fa-close"></i></a>
</span>
</div>
jQUERY:
$(document).ready(function(){
// Allow enter key to trigger preloadorders form
$(document).keypress(function(e) {
if(e.which == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
if($(".trigger").is(".ok"))
$("#PreLoadOrders").trigger("click");
else
return;
}
});
});
As you can see this submit performs processing which is why I have this jQuery for this modal. Now let's say I have another modal within this webpage but no processing is performed and since one modal is open at a time I put another $(document).ready()
in a global php/js script that all pages get and I give the modal's close button a class called: ".modal-close"
:
HTML:
<div class="modal-footer caption">
<button type="submit" class="modal-close btn default" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Close</button>
</div>
jQuery (include global.inc):
$(document).ready(function(){
// Allow enter key to trigger a particular button anywhere on page
$(document).keypress(function(e) {
if(e.which == 13) {
if($(".modal").is(":visible")){
$(".modal:visible").find(".modal-close").trigger('click');
}
}
});
});
