Topic: Jquery .html and .append not working in a modal.

robshelby priority asked 4 years ago


For some reason, Jquery's .html() and .append() don't seem to be working.

Do I need to re-render the modal?

Because I'll .append() a DIV in the modal and then I alert() the modal's .html() and it looks correct there.

But when the Modal is shown, the changes aren't there.

How do I re-render the modal so it reflects the changes?

THANK YOU!

Hi,

To which part of the modal you are appending the div? I've created the snippet where I append custom content to the .modal-body element and everything seems to be working fine. https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/marcin-luczak/2695178

If this doesn't work for you, please post a snippet with your code so I can check it, or try to append elements dynamically on shown.bs.modal and delete them on hide.bs.modal event. Otherwise, your custom elements will stack inside the modal body.

$("#modalSelector").on('shown.bs.modal', function(){
   // append elements
 });
$("#modalSelector").on('hide.bs.modal', function(){
  // delete elements
});

Regards, Marcin
