JavaScript Project - Modal Box

In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a Modal Box with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

A modal is a dialog box/popup window that is displayed on top of the current page.

We are going to use vanilla JavaScript to develop this Modal Box.

JavaScript Modal Box

Create a folder called modal as project workspace and we will create all the project files inside this folder.

1. index.html

Let's create index.html and add the following code to it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Modal</title>
    <!-- font-awesome -->
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.14.0/css/all.min.css"
    />
    <!-- styles -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <!-- hero -->
    <header class="hero">
      <div class="banner">
        <h1>modal project</h1>
        <button class="btn modal-btn">
          open modal
        </button>
      </div>
    </header>
    <!-- modal -->
    <div class="modal-overlay">
      <div class="modal-container">
        <h3>modal content</h3>
        <button class="close-btn"><i class="fas fa-times"></i></button>
      </div>
    </div>
    <!-- javascript -->
    <script src="script.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

2. script.js

Let's create a JavaScript file named script.js and add the following JavaScript code to it:

// select modal-btn,modal-overlay,close-btn
// listen for click events on modal-btn and close-btn
// when user clicks modal-btn add .open-modal to modal-overlay
// when user clicks close-btn remove .open-modal from modal-overlay

const modalBtn = document.querySelector(".modal-btn");
const modal = document.querySelector(".modal-overlay");
const closeBtn = document.querySelector(".close-btn");

modalBtn.addEventListener("click", function () {
  modal.classList.add("open-modal");
});
closeBtn.addEventListener("click", function () {
  modal.classList.remove("open-modal");
});

3. style.css

Let's create a CSS file named style.css and add the following CSS code to it:

/*

@import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans|Roboto:400,700&display=swap");
