how to call a modal from another php file when i click my link in my home page

Question

How to call modal from another php file? Sorry I am just starting to learn wed development.

Answer 1

Considering this is a bootstrap modal (which it looks like it is), you can create a JavaScript function and echo it out in PHP. Something like this:

echo '<script type="text/javascript">',
 '$("#modal-id").modal("toggle")',
 '</script>';

The example above is form the Bootstrap 4 Docs where it demonstrates calling the modal from javascript. Once that script is echoed from your PHP, it'll run on the page and load the modal.

To Clarify: Even if this isn't a bootstrap modal, you can still use the same JavaScript technique to add/remove a class to the modal which you can style to make it show/hide.

Answer 2

The best way to do that is to create your modal in a separate Signup.php file then using php include function, include Signup.php inside Index.php eg <?php include('Signup.php'); ?> <?php include('Signup.php'); ?> . The php include function is used to call a page inside another page. Dont forget, index.php file, thats where you are to to place the link that to call Signup.php
