Bootstrap 4 - early escape freezes options to close modal

Bootstrap 4 - early escape freezes options to close modal

advaniaadvania Posts: 35Questions: 13Answers: 0

We have users that mis-click and want to immediately escape getting an effectively a frozen window and have to reload the page.

To replicate if you use the example https://editor.datatables.net/examples/styling/bootstrap4.html and click escape right after 'new' or 'edit'.

This behavior is not observed on the Bootstrap 4 modal example pages (https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap4/bootstrap_modal.asp / https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/modal/ ) nor with Bootstrap 3 example page for data tables editor.

    Hi @advania ,

    I don't follow, sorry. If I

    1. go to that first link you posted,
    2. click 'New'
    3. Hit the 'Esc' key

    nothing is frozen for me. If I'm following the steps incorrectly, please could you correct me, or give more information on how you're seeing it (browser, OS, etc).

    Cheers,

    Colin

    Hey,

    Windows 10 Enterprise,
    Chrome Version 65.0.3325.181 (Official Build) (64-bit) and Firefox 60.0.1 (64-bit).

    Other users can replicate this easily as well, you have to hit the escape key really fast as if you want to instantly cancel.. ex because user mis-clicked edit or new.
