How to pass a parameter from a link element to a modal window?

Question

I have a table. In a cell of the table there is a link like this:

Answer 1

//Global Variable
value = '';

$('[href = #remoteModal]').click(function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
        value = $(this).data("id");
        $('#remoteModal').show();
});

And I think you can access to value variable everywhere in this page

Answer 2

var data-id = $(this).attr('data-id');

So here in data-id you wll get your "XYZ"

Answer 3

Use the .relatedTarget property mentioned in the Modal Event docs:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#remoteModal').on('show.bs.modal', function (event) {
        console.log($(event.relatedTarget).attr('data-id'));
    });
});
