The Angular UI Bootstrap Datepicker fails to appear on top of the Bootstrap Modal

I'm currently working on an Angular app that utilizes UI Bootstrap. Within my app, I have a modal containing a Datepicker at the bottom. However, I've encountered an issue where the Datepicker remains confined within the modal when expanded. I attempted to adjust the z-index, but it didn't resolve the problem. Below is the snippet of my HTML for the Datepicker:

<div class="control-group">
  <label class="control-label">Birth Date:</label>
  <div class="controls">
    <div class="form-horizontal" ng-controller="DatepickerCtrl">
      <input name="birthdate" class="input-thick" type="text" datepicker-popup="MM/dd/yyyy" ng-model="model.dateOfBirth" is-open="opened" min="minDate" max="'2013-11-11'" datepicker-options="dateOptions" date-disabled="disabled(date, mode)" ng-required="true" required />
      <button class="btn" ng-click="open()"><i class="icon-calendar"></i></button>
      <p ng-show="!addPatientForm.birthdate.$valid && formSubmitted" class="form-error"><i class="fa fa-exclamation-circle "></i> <b>Date of Birth: </b>Enter a date in the format MM/DD/YYYY. It cannot be a future date.</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Additionally, here is the relevant JavaScript code (js):

App.controller('DatepickerCtrl', function ($scope, $routeParams, $modal, $timeout) {
  $scope.today = function() {
    $scope.dt = new Date();
  };

  $scope.today();

  $scope.showWeeks = true;

  $scope.toggleWeeks = function () {
    $scope.showWeeks = ! $scope.showWeeks;
  };

  $scope.clear = function () {
    $scope.dt = null;
  };

  $scope.toggleMin = function() {
    $scope.minDate = ( $scope.minDate ) ? null : new Date();
  };

  $scope.open = function() {
    $timeout(function() {
      $scope.opened = true;
    });
  };

  $scope.dateOptions = {
    'year-format': 'yy',
    'starting-day': 1
  };
});

If you'd like to see the issue first-hand, feel free to check out this Plunker. Any insights or suggestions on how to fix the Datepicker display problem would be greatly appreciated.

Answer №1

By eliminating the overflow-y: auto style from the .modal-body class, the problem is resolved. Currently, the overflow-y property automatically inserts a scrollbar when the content exceeds the limits of the modal-body (such as with the datepicker), rather than permitting it to extend beyond the confines of the modal-body.

Answer №2

It seems that @Jakemmarsh's answer is on point!
In my own experience, I prefer using angular-strap and embedding the datepicker in a modal. However, I encountered a similar issue with repainting.
I managed to resolve it by:

.modal-open .modal.repaint{overflow-y: hidden !important;}

and

$("body").delegate("[bs-datepicker]","click",function(){
    $(".modal-open .modal").addClass("repaint");
});

Hopefully, this solution will be beneficial for others. :/
