jquery-asModal can accept an options object to alter the way it behaves. You can see the default options by call $.asModal.setDefaults(). The structure of an options object is as follows:

{
  namespace: 'modal', // String: Prefix string attached to the class of every element generated by the plugin
  skin: null, // set plugin skin

  content: null, // Set the URL, ID or Class.
  overlay: true, // Show the overlay.
  closeElement: null, // Element ID or Class to close the modal
  effect: 'fadeScale', // fadein | slide | newspaper | fall
  overlaySpeed: 200, // Sets the speed of the overlay, in milliseconds
  effectFallback: 'fade', // set default jquery animate when css3 animation doesn't support
  focus: true, // set focus to form element in content
  errorContent: 'sorry, ajax error.', // set ajax error content
  loadingContent: 'loading...', // set loading content

  closeByEscape: true, // Allow the user to close the modal by pressing 'ESC'.
  closeByOverlayClick: true, // Allow the user to close the modal by clicking the overlay.

  width: null, // Set a fixed total width.
  hieght: null, // Set a fixed total height.

  // Callback API
  onOpen: null, // Callback: function() - Fires when the modal open
  onClose: null // Callback: function() - Fires when the modal close
  //onComplete: null // Callback: function() - Fires when the effect end
}

Methods

Methods are called on asModal instances through the asModal method itself. You can also save the instances to variable for further use.

// call directly
$().asModal('destroy');

// or
var api = $().data('asModal');
api.destroy();

moveTo(position)

Move the modal handle to the position.

// move to 50px
$().asModal('moveTo', '50');

// move to 50%
$().asModal('moveTo', '50%');

open()

Open the modal.

$().asModal('open');

close()

Close the modal.

$().asModal('close');

enable()

Enable the modal functions.

$().asModal('enable');

disable()

Disable the modal functions.

$().asModal('disable');

destroy()

Destroy the modal instance.

$().asModal('destroy');

Events

jquery-asModal provides custom events for the plugin’s unique actions.

$('.the-element').on('asModal::ready', function (e) {
  // on instance ready
});

No conflict

If you have to use other plugin with the same namespace, just call the $.asModal.noConflict method to revert to it.

<script src="other-plugin.js"></script>
<script src="jquery-asModal.js"></script>
<script>
  $.asModal.noConflict();
  // Code that uses other plugin's "$().asModal" can follow here.
</script>
