Simple Modal in pure Javascript

artydev - Nov 5 '20 - - Dev Community

When you can't use the library you want, you have to deal with what you have...and in fact it's sometimes challenging :-)

Here is then the vanilla version of my previous Mithril version.

You can test it here : VanillaModal

<div id="modal"></div>

<div>
  <h1>Modal in pure JS</h1>

  <div id="triggerModal">
    <button modal="legal" >  
      Legal
    </button>
    <button modal="nouveaute" >  
      News
    </button>
    <button  modal="apropos" >
      About
    </button>
  </div>
</div>

.modal-shown {
  display: block;
}

.modal-hidden {
  display: none;
}

.modal {
    position: fixed; 
    z-index: 1; 
    padding-top: 100px;
    left: 0;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%; 
    height: 100%; 
    overflow: auto; 
    background-color: rgb(222,0,0);
    background-color: rgba(220,0,0,0.5); 
}

  /* Modal Content */
.modal-content {
    background-color: #fefefe;
    margin: auto;
    padding: 20px;
    border: 1px solid #888;
    width: 80%;
    max-width: 960px;

window.State = {

}

triggerModal.addEventListener("click", function (e) {
  var modal  = e.target.getAttribute("modal")
  modal && State.openDialog(modal)
})
