I've been following the instructions on , but I'm facing an issue with getting the save button to work on my modal. Initially, I tried placing it within the form tag, but it ended up using the form action from the main view instead of the partial.
Initially, I encountered a problem with the close buttons not working, which was resolved by changing data-dismiss to data-bs-dismiss. I'm now contemplating if I need to make a similar adjustment for the save button due to changes in Bootstrap 5.
Here is the code snippet:
Main View
<div id="AddStudyModal"></div>
// Irrelevant stuff here
<div>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="ajax-modal" data-bs-target="#add-study" data-url="@Url.Action("AddStudy", "App", new {id = Model.GUID})">Add</button>
</div>
Partial View
<div class="modal fade" id="add-study" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="addStudyLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h5 class="modal-title" id="addStudyLabel">Add Study</h5>
<button type="button" class="close" data-bs-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<form asp-controller="App" asp-action="AddParticipant" method="post">
@Html.HiddenFor(m => m.ParticipantGuid)
<div asp-validation-summary="ModelOnly"></div>
<div class="mb-3 form-group">
<label asp-for="Studies" class="form-label"></label>
<select asp-for="SelectedStudyGuid" asp-items="Model.Studies" class="form-control" autocomplete="off">
<option value=""> Select a Study</option>
</select>
<span asp-validation-for="SelectedStudyGuid" class="text-danger"></span>
</div>
<div class="mb-3 form-group">
<label asp-for="StartDate" class="form-label"></label>
<input asp-for="StartDate" class="form-control" autocomplete="off"/>
<span asp-validation-for="StartDate" class="text-danger"></span>
</div>
<div class="mb-3 form-group">
<label asp-for="EndDate" class="form-label"></label>
<input asp-for="EndDate" class="form-control" autocomplete="off"/>
<span asp-validation-for="EndDate" class="text-danger"></span>
</div>
<div class="text-center">
</div>
<div class="text-center">@ViewBag.Message</div>
</form>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-save="modal">Save</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
site.js
$(function (){
var AddStudyElement = $('#AddStudyModal');
$('button[data-toggle="ajax-modal"]').click(function(event){
var url = $(this).data('url');
$.get(url).done(function(data){
AddStudyElement.html(data);
AddStudyElement.find('.modal').modal('show');
})
})
AddStudyElement.on('click', '[data-save="modal"]', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
var form = $(this).parents('.modal').find('form');
var actionUrl = form.attr('action');
var sendData = form.serialize();
$.post(actionUrl, sendData).done(function(data){
AddStudyElement.find('modal').modal('hide');
})
})
})
Edit: Thanks to @Efraim's suggestion to add a period before 'modal', I managed to get the Save button to perform its intended action (closing the Modal).
