Modal dialog not closing by default close x button

I have following modal dialog coding,but when i click [X],the dialog doesn't closed. I invoke the dialog from button and the JavaScript function as follow;
$('#apply_Compensation_Leave').show();
Modal code
<div class="modal" id="apply_Compensation_Leave" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="messageModelLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true"><li class="fa fa-times"/></button>
<h3 style="font-size: 17px;">Apply Leave</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Did i miss anything?
Adding Javascript file..all javascript functions in seperate .js file.
EmpcompensationAdapter.method('getActionButtonsHtml', function(id,data) {
var html = "";
html = '<div style="width:80px;"><img class="tableActionButton" src="BASE_URL/apply.png" style="cursor:pointer;" rel="tooltip" title="Apply Leave" onclick="modJs.applyleaves();return false;"></img></div>';
return html;
});
EmpcompensationAdapter.method('applyleaves', function() {
$('#apply_Compensation_Leave').show();
});
EmpcompensationAdapter.method('showLeaveView', function() {
$('#apply_Compensation_Leave').hide();
});
When i click Back button, by calling the function showLeaveView();

Apart from adding $('#apply_Compensation_Leave').modal('show');, you need to change your HTML also. <li> tag should not be put without <ul>. It's not valid markup at all. Try putting × in your button HTML.
<div class="modal" id="apply_Compensation_Leave" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="messageModelLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h3 style="font-size: 17px;">Apply Leave</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is a Demo
Or you can provide valid markup like this <ul><li class="fa fa-times"></li></ul>
Here is a Demo with the valid markup.

The bootstrap Modal is invoked by $('#apply_Compensation_Leave').modal('show');

Try this demo.
You are opening your modal using JS.
You can use this.But this has wrong markup as #Alorika Mentioned
<div class="modal" id="apply_Compensation_Leave" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="messageModelLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">
</button>
<h3 style="font-size: 17px;">Apply Leave</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
JavaScript
$('#apply_Compensation_Leave').show();

Try this layout :
<div class="modal fade bs-example-modal-sm" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" data-backdrop="static" data-keyboard="false">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">×</span></button>
<h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel"> <center>Title here </center> </h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
...Body here...
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" id="Okbtn" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal"> CANCEL</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Bootstrap 4 - Avoid modal closing for on-screen click

In rails 4, I am using bootstrap plugin. When I am using modal feature there is close event issue which I need to solve. When modal opens, it should get close when I click on 'x' icon or 'Esc' button otherwise it should be open always. Right now when I click on the screen which excludes the modal form area it will get close.
In main.erb,
<div class="modal fade" id="main-lightbox-container" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="main-lightbox-container" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
In form.js.erb,
var content = "<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial=>"form", :locals=>{:user=>#user})) %>";
var container = $('#main-lightbox-container');
container.find('.modal-content').html(content);
container.modal({});
Here I am loading modal form via ajax request. How can I fix this on-screen click issue? Please help me.

Modal bootstrap is not showed until function ends

I'm novice in web programming yet but I' m trying to learn :)
I want to hide a modal to show another modal("Please wait screen"),to wait for a function call to end (loadData()). But the first modal gets hidden and then the screen fades until function ends and only then the "Please Wait" modals appears.
Any help is welcome.
Ps: Sorry for my bad english...
HTML
First modal
<div class="modal fade" id="modal1" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true" data-backdrop="static" data-keyboard="false">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
<span class="sr-only">Close</span>
</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal 1</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<button type="button" id= "btn1" class="btn btn-primary" data-target="#modal1">Click</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The second modal
<div class="modal fade bs-example-modal-sm" id="myPleaseWait" tabindex="-1" data-backdrop="static" data-keyboard="false" role="dialog" aria-hidden="true" data-backdrop="static">
<div class="modal-dialog modal-sm">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h4 class="modal-title">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-time">
</span> Processing data...
</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<div class="progress">
<div class="progress-bar progress-bar-info
progress-bar-striped active"
style="width: 100%">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Javascript
$('#btn1').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#modal1').modal('hide');
$("#myPleaseWait").modal("show");
loadData();
});

Bootstrap's modal class exposes a few events for hooking into modal functionality.
show.bs.modal
This event fires immediately when the show instance method is called.
shown.bs.modal
This event is fired when the modal has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).
hide.bs.modal
This event is fired immediately when the hide instance method has been called.
hidden.bs.modal
This event is fired when the modal has finished being hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).
loaded.bs.modal
This event is fired when the modal has loaded content using the remote option.
$('#btn1').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#modal1').modal('hide');
$('#modal1').on('hidden.bs.modal', function (e) {
$("#myPleaseWait").modal("show");
});
loadData();
});
For more details refer Bootstrap Documentation

Thanks #sri, with your explanation I could resolve it.
$('#btn1').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#modal1').modal('hide');
$("#myPleaseWait").modal("show");
$('#myPleaseWait').on('shown.bs.modal', function (e) {
loadData();
});
});

How to detect handlebars-created non-initialized modal closal

I am creating, upon the press of a button, a modal window that comes from an handlebars template. At the document's load, the modal window is NOT initialized so you can't tie an event to it such as :
$(".modal").attr("someAttr").change(function(){});
Here is the code of the modal window and the hidden button that can be called to show the window once it's initialized.
<script id="informationModalTemplate" type="text/x-handlebars-template">
<div class="modal fade informationModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myLargeModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">
<div class="modal-body">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">{{Title}}</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<textarea id="informationTextContainer" name="informationTextContainer">{{Content}}</textarea>
<a onclick="" class="button button-rounded button-reveal button-medium button-green tright"><i class="icon-thumbs-up"></i><span>OK</span></a>
<a onclick="" class="button button-rounded button-reveal button-medium button-red tright"><i class="icon-thumbs-down"></i><span>Cancel</span></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</script>
Can someone please tell me how to detect when such a window gets closed?

How can I have two different Modals in Twitter Bootstrap

So if I have two different Models the content within the second model doesn;t show up instead it's the content of the first model. How can i get two individual Models with different contents
EXAMPLE Model 1:
<!-- Button to trigger modal -->
modal 1
<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h3 id="myModalLabel">Modal header</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<p>One fine body…</p>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Close</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
</div>
</div>
EXAMPLE MODEL 2:
<!-- Button to trigger modal -->
modal 2
<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h3 id="myModalLabel">this is different</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<p>this ones different but yet when you click it the content of the first Model appears.</p>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">diffent</button>
<button class="btn btn-danger">Quit</button>
</div>
</div>
my goal is for when I click on the second modal button for the content to be what is in the second modal and not whats in the first Modal again. I want them both to be different.

Use 2 different modal id's....
<!-- Button to trigger modal -->
modal 1
<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal1" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
...
<!-- Button to trigger modal -->
modal 2
<!-- Modal -->
<div id="myModal2" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
