Close Bootstrap's modal with AJAX

Question

I use the modal of Twitter's Bootstrap. You can close the modal, by clicking on a button or something different with the tag data-dismiss="modal". I would like to process my form in the modal with AJAX (by clicking on a submit button) and then close the modal. So how do close this modal in AJAX? Or is that not possible?

(sorry for my bad English...)

Answer 1

If you read further down the documentation:

$('#myModal').modal('hide')

Just get the ID of the modal, and replace myModal with it. Then place it in the AJAX success handler and there you have it.

Answer 2

You can use this script to close the modal

<button type="button" id="close_btn" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">
    <i class = "icons-office-52"></i> 
</button> 
    $("#close_btn").trigger("click");

or

$('#my_model').modal('hide');
