Answer 1

<form id="myform" class="form-wizard">
    <h2 class="form-wizard-heading">BootStap Wizard Form</h2>
    <input type="text" value=""/>
    <input type="submit" id="submitButton"/>
</form>

<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
        <h3 id="myModalLabel">Modal header</h3>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-body">
        <p>One fine body…</p>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-footer">
        <button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Close</button>
        <button class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
    </div>
</div>

You can launch the modal with the code below this.

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#submitButton").click(function(){
        $("#myModal").modal();
    });
});

Try this. It's works for me well.

function clicked(item) {
         alert($(item).attr("id"));
        }

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-rtl/3.4.0/css/bootstrap-rtl.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

<button onclick="clicked(this);" id="modalME">Click me</button>

<!-- Modal -->
  <div class="modal" id="modalME" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <h2>Modal in CSS</h2>
        <a href="#close" class="btn-close" aria-hidden="true">×</a> <!--CHANGED TO "#close"-->
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        <p>One modal example here.</p>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <a href="#close" class="btn">Nice!</a>  <!--CHANGED TO "#close"-->
      </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <!-- /Modal -->

Answer 5

Just call the modal method(without passing any parameters) using jQuery selector.

Here is example:

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

Answer 6

In addition you can use via data attribute

<button type="button" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Launch modal</button>

In this particular case you don't need to write javascript.
