Dialog showModal() Method
Example
Show the dialog window:
document.getElementById("myDialog").showModal();Definition and Usage
The showModal() method is used to show the dialog.
When this method is used to show the dialog, the user cannot interact with other elements on the page. If you want the user to be able to interact with the page while the dialog is open, you can use the show() method.
Note: This method is often used together with the close() method.
Browser Support
Note: Currently, only Chrome Canary and Safari 6 support the showModal() method.
Note: Even though Chrome Canary supports the <dialog> element, you must open chrome://flags in the Chrome address bar and enable the "Enable experimental Web Platform features" flag. After enabling it, you need to restart the Chrome browser.
Syntax
dialogObject.showModal()
