I have a modal that when clicking outside it would like it to close. For issues with position issues, I'm using
data-backdrop=false
My modal:
<div class="bd-example">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal" data-whatever="@mdo">Open modal for @mdo</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal" data-whatever="@fat">Open modal for @fat</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal" data-whatever="@getbootstrap">Open modal for @getbootstrap</button>
<div class="modal fade" data-backdrop="false" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)" id="exampleModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h4 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLabel">New message</h4>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<form>
<div class="md-form">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="recipient-name">
</div>
<div class="md-form">
<textarea type="text" id="message-text" class="form-control md-textarea" rows="3" ></textarea>
</div>
</form>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Send message</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I tried something like:
<script>
$('.modal').click(function(event){
$('.modal').modal('hide');
});
</script>
But it did not work.
