• javascript
• php
• bootstrap-modal

• Try close the modal as $('#myModal').modal('hide'); – Gowri Commented Oct 7, 2014 at 10:11
• Try this: $("#modal").modal("hide"); – prava Commented Oct 7, 2014 at 10:12
• updated my edit close the modal with model id not the form id $('#myModal').modal('hide'); – Gowri Commented Oct 7, 2014 at 10:19
• Are oyu sure this problem is in any way related to PHP? What have you tried to resolve it? – Nico Haase Commented Jun 10, 2024 at 10:13

I think you are not using modal popup syntax properly, can you try the following:

<div class="modal fade" id="mymodal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="mymodaltitle" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
        <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">&times;</button>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body">
              **--- put your form here**
            </div>
            <div class="modal-footer">
            </div>
         </div>
     </div>
</div>

Then, as others have suggested use $("#mymodal").modal('hide')
