Modal Designer
Give your next decision a little space. Design it, try it, take the code.
Try the buttons, Tab, Shift+Tab, and Escape.
Close the dialog to return to the sample page.
Contrast checks cover these two solid-color text pairs only. Test your finished dialog with keyboard and assistive technology.
From preview to your page
Use all three snippets together, or download the complete demo. No dependencies. Keep IDs unique if you add more dialogs.
The main action currently closes the dialog and returns “confirm.” Connect your app’s action in the commented JavaScript hook.
01 Ask for one decision
A dialog interrupts someone’s work. Keep its purpose clear, its message short, and the way out obvious.
02 Test the awkward cases
Try a longer message and the phone preview. Content scrolls inside the dialog when space is limited.
03 Keep behavior built in
The export uses native HTML dialog behavior: a named dialog, modal background, Escape dismissal, and focus restored to the opener.
