I am currently working on a website project using HTML with bootstrap and javascript. I have been attempting to include a toast feature by implementing the code provided on the bootstrap website:
<div class="toast" role="alert" aria-live="assertive" aria-atomic="true">
<div class="toast-header">
<img src="..." class="rounded mr-2" alt="...">
<strong class="mr-auto">Bootstrap</strong>
<small class="text-muted">11 mins ago</small>
<button type="button" class="ml-2 mb-1 close" data-dismiss="toast" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="toast-body">
Hello, world! This is a toast message.
</div>
</div>
However, despite my efforts, the toast element does not appear as expected in the layout. It seems to create a gap between the navigation and carousel sections, which was not intended. You can see the issue illustrated in this image: https://i.sstatic.net/rTRk0.png
To troubleshoot the problem, I have made sure to import all necessary scripts from the bootstrap website:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-ggOyR0iXCbMQv3Xipma34MD+dH/1fQ784/j6cY/iJTQUOhcWr7x9JvoRxT2MZw1T" crossorigin="anonymous">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js" integrity="sha384-q8i/X+965DzO0rT7abK41JStQIAqVgRVzpbzo5smXKp4YfRvH+8abtTE1Pi6jizo" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.14.7/umd/popper.min.js" integrity="sha384-UO2eT0CpHqdSJQ6hJty5KVphtPhzWj9WO1clHTMGa3JDZwrnQq4sF86dIHNDz0W1" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-JjSmVgyd0p3pXB1rRibZUAYoIIy6OrQ6VrjIEaFf/nJGzIxFDsf4x0xIM+B07jRM" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
In addition, I have included the following Javascript snippet in my script file:
$('.toast').toast(option)
Despite these steps, the toast functionality still eludes me. If anyone has any insights or solutions, I would greatly appreciate your help :)
