I am having trouble with a scrollable bootstrap modal that I want to cover with a white-transparent absolute div. I have set the modal body to a relative position and the absolute div to 100% height with top/bottom set to 0, but when scrolling, the absolute div doesn't cover the entire body.
.modal-body {
position: relative;
height: auto;
}
#loading {
background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5);
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
border: 1px solid red;
}
