I have been struggling to figure out how to make this popup close when clicking outside of it. Currently, it only closes when clicked directly on it.
Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Here is the HTML code:
<h2>Popup</h2>
<div class="popup" onclick="myFunction()">Click me to toggle the popup!
<span class="popuptext" id="myPopup">A Simple Popup!</span>
</div>
And the Java Script code:
<script>
// When the user clicks on div, open the popup
function myFunction() {
var popup = document.getElementById("myPopup");
popup.classList.toggle("show");
}
</script>
Lastly, the CSS code:
/* Popup container - can be styled as desired */
.popup {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
cursor: pointer;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
/* The actual popup */
.popup .popuptext {
visibility: hidden;
width: 160px;
background-color: #555;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
border-radius: 6px;
padding: 8px 0;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
bottom: 125%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -80px;
}
/* Popup arrow */
.popup .popuptext::after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -5px;
border-width: 5px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #555 transparent transparent transparent;
}
/* Toggle this class - hide and show the popup */
.popup .show {
visibility: visible;
-webkit-animation: fadeIn 1s;
animation: fadeIn 1s;
}
Thank you for your prompt help.
