Close Bootstrap Modal

Put modal('toggle') instead of modal(toggle)

$(function () {
   $('#modal').modal('toggle');
});

---

to close bootstrap modal you can pass 'hide' as option to modal method as follow

$('#modal').modal('hide');

Please take a look at working fiddle here

bootstrap also provide events that you can hook into modal functionality, like if you want to fire a event when the modal has finished being hidden from the user you can use hidden.bs.modal event you can read more about modal methods and events here in Documentation

If none of the above method work, give a id to your close button and trigger click on close button.

---

$('#modal').modal('toggle'); 

or

$('#modal').modal().hide();

should work.

But if nothing else works you can call the modal close button directly:

$("#modal .close").click()

---

this worked for me:

<span class="button" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">cancel</span>

use this link modal close

---

Try This

$('#modal_id').modal('hide');

---

$("#your-modal-id").modal('hide');

Running this call via class ($(".my-modal")) won't work.

---

this one is pretty good and it also works in angular 2

$("#modal .close").click()

---

You can see this reference but if this link has been removed, read this description:

Call a modal with id myModal with a single line of JavaScript:

$('#myModal').modal(options)

Options

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to data-, as in data-backdrop="".

|-----------|-------------|--------|---------------------------------------------|

Methods

Asynchronous methods and transitions All API methods are asynchronous and start a transition. They return to the caller as soon as the transition is started but before it ends. In addition, a method call on a transitioning component will be ignored. See our JavaScript documentation for more information.

.modal(options)

Activates your content as a modal. Accepts an optional options object.

$('#myModal').modal({
   keyboard: false
})

.modal('toggle')

Manually toggles a modal. Returns to the caller before the modal has actually been shown or hidden (i.e. before the shown.bs.modal or hidden.bs.modal event occurs).

$('#myModal').modal('toggle')

.modal('show')

Manually opens a modal. Returns to the caller before the modal has actually been shown (i.e. before the shown.bs.modal event occurs).

$('#myModal').modal('show')

.modal('hide')

Manually hides a modal. Returns to the caller before the modal has actually been hidden (i.e. before the hidden.bs.modal event occurs).

$('#myModal').modal('hide')

.modal('handleUpdate')

Manually readjust the modal’s position if the height of a modal changes while it is open (i.e. in case a scrollbar appears).

$('#myModal').modal('handleUpdate')

.modal('dispose')

Destroys an element’s modal.

Events

Bootstrap’s modal class exposes a few events for hooking into modal functionality. All modal events are fired at the modal itself (i.e. at the **). Type Description

|----------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
| Event Type     | Description                                                  |
|----------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
| show.bs.modal  | This event fires immediately when the **show** instance      |
|                | method is called. If caused by a click, the clicked element  |
|                | is available as the **relatedTarget** property of the event. | 
|                |                                                              |
| shown.bs.modal | This event is fired when the modal has been made visible to  |
|                | the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete). If     |
|                | caused by a click, the clicked element is available as the   | 
|                | **relatedTarget** property of the event.                     |
|                |                                                              |
| hide.bs.modal  | This event is fired immediately when the **hide** instance   |
|                | method has been called.                                      |
|                |                                                              |
| hidden.bs.modal| This event is fired when the modal has finished being hidden |
|                | from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).   |
|----------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|

$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function (e) {
  // do something...
})

My five cents on this one is that I don't want to have to target the bootstrap modal with an id and seeing as there should be only one modal at a time the following should be quite sufficient to remove the modal as toggle could be dangerous:

$('.modal').removeClass('show');

---

In some circumstances typing error could be the culprit. For instance, make sure you have:

data-dismiss="modal"

and not

data-dissmiss="modal"

Notice the double "ss" in the second example that will cause the Close button that fail.

---

We can close the modal pop-up in the following ways:

// We use data-dismiss property of modal-up in html to close the modal-up,such as

<div class='modal-footer'><button type='button' class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss='modal'>Close</button></div>

 // We can close the modal pop-up through java script, such as

 <div class='modal fade pageModal'  id='openModal' tabindex='-1' data-keyboard='false' data-backdrop='static'>

    $('#openModal').modal('hide'); //Using modal pop-up Id.
    $('.pageModal').modal('hide'); //Using class that is defined in modal html.

---

$('.modal.in').modal('hide');

use the above code to hide the backdrop of modal if you are using multiple modal pop in one page.

   function Delete(){
       var id = $("#dgetid").val();
       debugger
       $.ajax({
           type: "POST",
           url: "Add_NewProduct.aspx/DeleteData",
           data: "{id:'" + id + "'}",
           datatype: "json",
           contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
           success: function (result) {
               if (result.d == 1) {
                   bindData();
                   setTimeout(function(){ $('#DeleteModal').modal('hide');},1000);
               }
           }
       });
   };

I closed modal Programmatically with this trick

Add a button in modal with data-dismiss="modal" and hide the button with display: none. Here is how it will look like

<div class="modal fade" id="addNewPaymentMethod" role="dialog">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
   .
   .
   .
   <button type="button" id="close-modal" data-dismiss="modal" style="display: none">Close</button>
  </div>
</div>

Now when you want to close modal Programmatically just trigger a click event on that button, which is not visible to user

In Javascript you can trigger click on that button like this:

document.getElementById('close-modal').click();

---

After some test, I found that for bootstrap modal need to wait for some time before executing the $(.modal).modal('hide') after executing $(.modal).modal('show'). And i found in my case i need at least 500 milisecond interval between the two.
So this is my test case and solution:

$('.modal-loading').modal('show');
setTimeout(function() {
  $('.modal-loading').modal('hide');
}, 500);

---

you can use;

$('#' + $('.modal.show').attr('id')).modal('hide');

---

Using modal.hide would only hide the modal. If you are using overlay underneath the modal, it would still be there. use click call to actually close the modal and remove the overlay.

$("#modalID .close").click()

---

Another way of doing this is that first you remove the class modal-open, which closes the modal. Then you remove the class modal-backdrop that removes the grayish cover of the modal.

Following code can be used:

$('body').removeClass('modal-open')
$('.modal-backdrop').remove()  

---

In my case, I used a button to show the modal

<button type="button" class="btn btn-success" style="color:white"
    data-toggle="modal" data-target="#my-modal-to-show" >
    <i class="fas fa-plus"></i> Call MODAL
</button>

So in my code, to close the modal (that has the id = 'my-modal-to-show') I call that function (in Angular typescript):

closeById(modalId: string) {
  $(modalId).modal('toggle');
  $(modalId+ ' .close').click();
}

If I call $(modalId).modal('hide') it does't work and I don't know why

PS.: in my modal I coded that button element with .close class too

<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"> 
    <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
</button>

---

This works for me. I'm a newbie so, Please ignore my usage of JQuery and Vanilla JavaScript together.

document.addEventListener("click",function(){
        $(".modal").modal('hide');
        });

---

This code worked perfectly for me to close a modal (i'm using bootstrap 3.3)

$('#myModal').removeClass('in')

---

In my case, main page from where bootstrap modal was triggered started to not responding after using $("#modal").modal('toggle'); way, but started responding in the following way:

$("#submitBtn").on("click",function(){
  $("#submitBtn").attr("data-dismiss","modal");
});

---

This works well

$(function () {
   $('#modal').modal('toggle');
});

However, when you have multiple modals stacking on top one another it is not effective, so instead , this works

data-dismiss="modal"

---

Just add this in modal

div tabindex="-1"

---

Besides, you can "click" on a 'x', that closes dialog. E.g.:

$(".ui-dialog-titlebar-close").click();

---

some times the solution up doesn't work so you d have properly to remove the in class and add the css display:none manually .

$("#modal").removeClass("in");
$("#modal").css("display","none");

---

my answer is not strictly related to question like many others above. But these conversations helped me to figure out why my bootstrap modal doesn't react when I click on a very general close button while it still closed it when I pressed the ESC button.

<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>

It might help someone.

If you put into your code (in some special cases it makes sense):

$modal.off('click')

then it also results that the modal won't be closed because the event is blocked.

In that case you have to handle it yourself:

$modal
  .on('click', '[data-dismiss="modal"]', function() {
      $modal.modal('hide');
  });

---

try this

 $('#yourmodal').click(); 

---

you can try with this just add

div tabindex="-1"

in your HTML and in jquery you can use

$('#myModal').modal('hide')

OR

$('#myModal').modal('toggle')
