I need to be able to open a Twitter bootstrap modal window using the onClick=""
or similar function. Just need the code to go into the onClick=""
. I am trying to make a click-able div
to open the modal.
Code Excerpts:
Div Code:
<div class="span4 proj-div" onClick="open('GSCCModal');">
Modal Div Code:
<div id="GSCCModal" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
Javascript:
function open(x){
$(x).modal('show');
}
You don't need an onclick. Assuming you're using Bootstrap 3 Bootstrap 3 Documentation
<div class="span4 proj-div" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#GSCCModal">Clickable content, graphics, whatever</div>
<div id="GSCCModal" class="modal fade" 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-hidden="true">× </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>
If you're using Bootstrap 2, you'd follow the markup here:

I was looking for the onClick option to set the title and body of the modal based on the item in a list. T145's answer helped a lot, so I wanted to share how I used it.
Make sure the tag containing the JavaScript function is of type text/javascript to avoid conflicts:
<script type="text/javascript"> function showMyModalSetTitle(myTitle, myBodyHtml) {
/*
* '#myModayTitle' and '#myModalBody' refer to the 'id' of the HTML tags in
* the modal HTML code that hold the title and body respectively. These id's
* can be named anything, just make sure they are added as necessary.
*
*/
$('#myModalTitle').html(myTitle);
$('#myModalBody').html(myBodyHtml);
$('#myModal').modal('show');
}</script>
This function can now be called in the onClick method from inside an element such as a button:
<button type="button" onClick="javascript:showMyModalSetTitle('Some Title', 'Some body txt')"> Click Me! </button>
A JavaScript function must first be made that holds what you want to be done:
function print() { console.log("Hello World!") }
and then that function must be called in the onClick method from inside an element:
<a onClick="print()"> ... </a>
You can learn more about modal interactions directly from the Bootstrap 3 documentation found here:
http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#modals
Your modal bind is also incorrect. It should be something like this, where "myModal" = ID of element:
$('#myModal').modal(options)
In other words, if you truly want to keep what you already have, put a "#" in front GSCCModal and see if that works.
It is also not very wise to have an onClick bound to a div element; something like a button would be more suitable.
Hope this helps!
I had the same problem, after researching a lot, I finally built a js function to create modals dynamically based on my requirements. Using this function, you can create popups in one line such as:
puyModal({title:'Test Title',heading:'Heading',message:'This is sample message.'})
Or you can use other complex functionality such as iframes, video popups, etc.
