Alert messages

Example alerts

Add dismiss functionality to all alert messages with this plugin.

Usage

Enable dismissal of an alert via JavaScript:

Copy
$(".alert").alert()

Markup

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

Copy
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>

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.

Copy
$(".alert").alert('close')

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