Usage

Enable dismissal of an alert via JavaScript:

{% highlight js %}$(".alert").alert(){% endhighlight %}

Markup

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

{% highlight html %}×Close{% endhighlight %}

Methods

$().alert()

Wraps all alerts with close functionality. To have your alerts animate out when closed, make sure they have the .fade and .in class already applied to them.

.alert('close')

Closes an alert.

{% highlight js %}$(".alert").alert('close'){% endhighlight %}

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 %} $('#my-alert').on('closed.bs.alert', function () { // do something… }) {% endhighlight %}
