I am learning how to implement Bootstrap modals in AngularJS. I can do it when the modal code (the actual popup window code) is on the main page, but I want to be able to display external files so that my SPA isn't super-cluttered. I am implementing this on a much larger scale, but for simplicity's sake I'll keep the code example to a minimum.
<html>
<head>
<meta charset='utf-8'>
<script src="js/angular.js"></script>
<script src="js/angular-ui-bootstrap-modal.js"></script>
<script src="js/app.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.css">
</head>
<body ng-app="MyApp" ng-controller="MyCtrl">
<button class="btn" ng-click="open()">Open Modal</button>
<!-- want this code to be an external.html file -->
<div modal="showModal" close="cancel()">
<div class="modal-header">
<h4>Modal Dialog</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<p>Example paragraph with some text.</p>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button class="btn btn-success" ng-click="ok()">Okay</button>
<button class="btn" ng-click="cancel()">Cancel</button>
</div>
</div>
<!-- -->
</body>
</html>
**app.js**
var app = angular.module("MyApp", ["ui.bootstrap.modal"]);
app.controller("MyCtrl", function($scope) {
$scope.open = function() {
$scope.showModal = true;
};
$scope.ok = function() {
$scope.showModal = false;
};
$scope.cancel = function() {
$scope.showModal = false;
};
});
I know that I need to add a `templateUrl` to my app.js, but don't know how I would bridge the gap between the three files (index.html, app.js, and external.html).
