Example alerts

Add dismiss functionality to all alert messages with this plugin.

Holy guacamole! Best check yo self, you're not looking too good.

Oh snap! You got an error!

Change this and that and try again. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus, nisi erat porttitor ligula, eget lacinia odio sem nec elit. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum.

Usage

Just add data-dismiss="alert" to your close button to automatically give an alert close functionality. Closing an alert removes it from the DOM.

{% highlight html %} {% endhighlight %}

To have your alerts use animation when closing, make sure they have the .fade and .in classes 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 by removing it from the DOM. If the .fade and .in classes are present on the element, the alert will fade out before it is removed.

Events

Bootstrap's alert plugin 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 %}
