bootstrap modal disappears immediately

Question

I have a form on my website. When the submit button is activated I would like a bootstrap modal to appear and stay until you press the button on the modal to get back to the main menu. The modal appears for a second and then disappears. When I press the 'back' button on my browser window the modal then appears and stays until I press the 'ok' button on the modal. Any suggestions to a solution?

@RamizWachtler is correct. This code clearly double loads the Bootstrap JS (head, then body), which is addressed in the linked post. — merv, Dec 29 '17 at 18:14

I was also facing the same issue couple of days back but dis trick worked for me, just change the button type to anchor tag as shown below. e.g

<a type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" href="#myModal">Submit</a>

according to me the reason of the issue might be that it is trying to submit the form that's why the modal disappears immediately Hope dis would help you..

Couple of issues. You have multiple HTML and body tags. You only need the modal div with your first HTML/Body tags.

Second you don't want the modal as a submit button on a form. Try type=button instead.
