This question have many answers out there but none of those answers solved my problem. I have a modal with some <select>
tags. I am trying to save the values from the select options
. after they click Save
the modal should close but not submit
the result yet because the user still need to review stuff after they click save
on the modal.
HTML
<!-- Modal --> <div id="1" class="modal fade" role="dialog"> <div class="modal-dialog"> <!-- Modal content--> <div class="modal-content"> <div class="modal-header"> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">× </button> <h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4> </div> <div class="modal-body"> //select tags go here </div> <div class="modal-footer"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button> <button id="save" onclick="save()" class="btn btn-width bkgrnd-cyan save-details" type="button" name="save-details">Save</button> </div> </div>
JS
$('#save').click(function() { $('#1').modal('hide'); });
Since my code is really long, I just copied a modal from google but I added my Save
button, so this is the real Save
button that my modal is using.
Thanks
EDIT
I changed the id number to letters so now the code doesn’t include any id starting with number, thanks.
PS still need help =/
EDIT
I also tried this one and it did not work
$(document).ready(function(){ $('#save').click(function(){ $('#modal_1').modal('hide');//modal_1 is the id 1 }); });

Answer
I’m not sure the id=1
is fine, but you can use this code to simulate a click on the close button (or you can add an id or a class to it).
You may have to remove the onclick="save()"
data = {}; $("#save").on("click", function(e){ e.preventDefault(); // prevent de default action, which is to submit // save your value where you want data.select = $("#exampleSelect").value(); // or call the save function here // save(); $(this).prev().click(); });
