Utilize a variety of trigger buttons to open a single modal window

I have a large modal and instead of creating new buttons and modal windows, I would like to use multiple buttons that will all trigger the same modal.

Here is an example of a modal taken from getbootstrap.com
I have attempted to create multiple buttons with the same data-target, but when I click on the additional buttons, the modal does not open, although the gray background overlay still appears.

Any suggestions on how this can be achieved?

<!-- Button trigger modal -->
<button class="btn btn-primary btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">
  Launch demo modal
</button>

<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel"aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
        <h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">Modal title</h4>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        ...
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Answer №1

After some investigation, I discovered the issue causing my modal with multiple buttons not to display. It turns out the div housing the modal was concealed within a panel, preventing it from rendering. I resolved this by moving the modal div to the top of the page, ensuring that it appears when any of the buttons are clicked.
