Currently, I am a beginner in the realm of JavaScript and I am trying to build a todo-style application. So far, I have successfully managed to create, display, and delete items from an array. However, I am facing challenges when it comes to editing these items.
All these functionalities are achieved using the uuidv4 library to generate unique IDs for each item in the array.
Once an individual ID is assigned to an array item, dynamic buttons are generated - one for deleting the item and another for editing it.
When the edit button is clicked, my goal is to open a modal containing the content of the selected array item. After making edits, the "edit" button within the modal should trigger an edit function to update the changes and then re-render the array.
Unfortunately, I am encountering a problem where I cannot seem to get the modal dialog box to open when clicking the edit button.
Please find below the code responsible for creating the necessary structure; note that the code for creation, rendering, and deletion has been omitted.
// Generate the DOM structure for a todo
const generateTodoDOM = function(todo) {
const todoEl = document.createElement("div");
// Remaining code for generating todos
};
The following code snippet illustrates how the modal functionality is implemented:
//Edit modal todo by id
const editModal = function(id) {
// Code for handling modal operations
};
Upon clicking the "submitEditTodo" button, the provided edit function will be executed as shown below:
//Edit todo by id
const editTodo = function(id) {
// Implementation details for editing todos
};
Apart from the functions mentioned above, there are other functions for saving data (`saveTodos`) and rendering elements (`renderTodos`). Please refer to the HTML and CSS snippets related to the modal display.
