Add method to close modal programmaticaly

[aquam8]

Cory [suggested to add the following to the reveal source code to enable the modal to be close programmaticaly (from Javascript).
[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4884369/how-do-i-programmatically-close-an-open-jquery-reveal-js-modal-box]

$.fn.hideModal = function(options){
var self = this,
modal = $(self),
topMeasure = parseInt(modal.css('top'));
$('.reveal-modal-bg').css({'display' : 'none'});
modal.css({'visibility' : 'hidden', 'top' : topMeasure});
}

and use
$('#your_modal_box').hideModal()

That's well worthwhile.

Thank you Cory!

Hey Matt,

You can close (or open) the modal with the current code by triggering the reveal open or close event.

$('#yourModal').trigger('reveal:close');
