How to close Bootstrap 3 modal programmatically on AJAX success?
<p>I have a code that what I wanted to do is to close the modal on ajax success. This is my code:</p>

<p><strong>script</strong></p>

<pre><code>success: function() {
    console.log("delete success");
    $('#deleteContactModal').modal('hide');
    $( "#loadContacts" ).load( "/main/loadContacts" );

}
</code></pre>

<p><strong>html</strong></p>

<pre><code>&lt;div class="modal fade" id="deleteContactModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel"&gt;
  &lt;div class="modal-dialog modal-sm" role="document"&gt;
    &lt;div class="modal-content"&gt;
&lt;!--everything goes here --&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Everything just works except when the code <code>$('#deleteContactModal').modal('hide');</code> triggers, it just shows a black faded screen like this:</p>

<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ooyf6.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ooyf6.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>

<p>The modal closes but the black faded color is still present. Am I missing something here? Thank you in advance.</p>

<p>I'm using <strong>bootstrap 3.3</strong>.</p>
