Alert messages alert.js

Example alerts

Add dismiss functionality to all alert messages with this plugin.

Usage

Just add data-dismiss="alert" to your close button to automatically give an alert close functionality.

{% highlight html %} {% endhighlight %}

To have your alerts use animation when closing, make sure they have the .fade and .in class already applied to them.

Methods

$().alert()

Makes an alert listen for click events on descendant elements which have the data-dismiss="alert" attribute. (Not necessary when using the data-api's auto-initialization.)

$().alert('close')

Closes an alert.

Events

Bootstrap's alert class exposes a few events for hooking into alert functionality.

Event Type Description
close.bs.alert This event fires immediately when the close instance method is called.
closed.bs.alert This event is fired when the alert has been closed (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).
{% highlight js %} $('#myAlert').on('closed.bs.alert', function () { // do something… }) {% endhighlight %}
