Modal

Create modal dialogs with different styles and transitions.

Usage

The Modal component consists of an overlay, a dialog and an optional close button. You can use any element to toggle a modal dialog. To enable the necessary JavaScript, add the uk-toggle attribute. An <a> element needs to be linked to the modal’s id. If you are using another element, like a button, just add the uk-toggle="target: #ID" attribute to target the id of the modal container.

Add the uk-modal attribute to a <div> element to create the modal container and an overlay that blanks out the page. It is important to add an id to indicate the element for toggling. Use the following classes to define the modal’s sections.

Class	Description
`.uk-modal-dialog`	Add this class to a child `<div>` element to create the dialog
`.uk-modal-body`	Add this class to create padding between the modal and its content.
`.uk-modal-title`	Add this class to a heading element to create the modal title.
`.uk-modal-close`	Add this class to an `<a>` or `<button>` element to create a close button and enable its functionality.

<!-- This is a button toggling the modal -->
<button uk-toggle="target: #my-id" type="button"></button>

<!-- This is the modal -->
<div class="uk-modal p-6" id="my-id" uk-modal>
  <div class="uk-modal-body uk-modal-dialog">
    <h2 class="uk-modal-title"></h2>
    <button class="uk-modal-close" type="button"></button>
  </div>
</div>

Close button

To create a close button, enable its functionality and add proper styling and positioning, add the .uk-modal-close-default class to an <a> or <button> element. To place the close button outside the modal, add the .uk-modal-close-outside class.

Add the uk-close attribute from the Close component, to apply a close icon.

  <div class="uk-modal-dialog">
    <button class="uk-modal-close-default" type="button" uk-close></button>

To vertically center the modal dialog, you can use the .uk-margin-auto-vertical class from the Margin component.

<div class="uk-flex-top" uk-modal>
  <div class="uk-margin-auto-vertical uk-modal-dialog"></div>

Note .uk-flex-top on the modal container is needed to support IE 11.

Header and footer

To divide the modal into different content sections, use the following classes.

Class	Description
`.uk-modal-header`	Add this class to a `<div>` element to create the modal header.
`.uk-modal-footer`	Add this class to a `<div>` element to create the modal footer.

<div uk-modal>
  <div class="uk-modal-dialog">
    <button class="uk-modal-close-default" type="button" uk-close></button>

Full modifier

To create a modal, that fills the entire page, add the .uk-modal-full class. It is also recommended adding the .uk-modal-close-full class to the close button, so that it adapts its styling.

<div class="uk-modal uk-modal-full" uk-modal>
  <div class="uk-modal-dialog">
    <button
      class="uk-close-large uk-modal-close-full"
      type="button"
      uk-close
    ></button>
  </div>
</div>

Using the grid and width classes, you can create a nice, split fullscreen modal.

Overflow

By default, the page will scroll with the modal, if its content exceeds the window height. To apply a scrollbar inside the modal, add the uk-overflow-auto attribute from the Utility component to the modal body.

<div uk-modal>
  <div class="uk-modal-dialog" uk-overflow-auto></div>

Media

If you want to display media, you should first check, if the Lightbox component doesn’t already offer everything you need. However, you can also use the modal to have more control over the markup to wrap your media in.

Note Use the uk-video attribute from the Video component to make sure videos are stopped when the modal is closed.

Component options

Any of these options can be applied to the component attribute. Separate multiple options with a semicolon. Learn more

`bg-close`	Boolean	`true`	Close the modal when the background is clicked.

Note While the modal dialogs work perfectly, customizing padding requires a custom-compiled UIkit JavaScript. If you’re unfamiliar with compiling your JavaScript, it’s advisable to build the modal using HTML.

The component comes with a number of prepared modal dialogs that you can use for user interaction. You can call the dialog directly from JavaScript and use callback functions to process the user input.

Code	Description
`UIkit.modal.alert('UIkit alert!')`	Show an alert box with one button.
`UIkit.modal.confirm('UIkit confirm!')`	Show a confirm dialog with your message and two buttons.
`UIkit.modal.prompt('Name:', 'Your name')`	Show a dialog asking for a text input.
`UIkit.modal.dialog('<p>UIkit dialog!</p>');`	Show dialog with any HTML content.

To process the user input, the modal uses a promise based interface which provides a then() function to register your callback functions. The UIkit.modal.dialog function however will return the modal itself.

UIkit.modal.confirm("UIkit confirm!").then(
  function () {
    console.log("Confirmed.");
  },
  function () {
    console.log("Rejected.");
  },
);

The returned promise has a property dialog, which holds a reference to the modal itself. This lets you manipulate e.g. the markup of the modal’s element.

To translate the button labels, the dialog functions accepts an optional options object parameter. This has a key i18n and two properties ok and cancel.

const modal = UIkit.modal.confirm("UIkit confirm!", {
  i18n: { ok: "okay" },
}).dialog; // The modal component
const el = modal.$el; // The modal element

Accessibility

The Modal component adheres to the Dialog (Modal) WAI-ARIA design pattern and automatically sets the appropriate WAI-ARIA roles and properties.

The modal has the dialog role and the aria-modal property.

The Close component automatically sets the appropriate WAI-ARIA roles and properties.

The close icon has the aria-label property, and if an <a> element is used, the button role.

Keyboard interaction

The Modal component can be accessed through keyboard using the following keys.

The esc key closes the modal. This behaviour is disabled if the bg-close: false option is set.
