					<button class="btn btn-primary" data-modal-toggle="#my_modal">
 Show Modal
</button>
<div class="modal max-w-[600px] top-[10%]" data-modal="true" id="my_modal">
 <div class="modal-content">
  <div class="modal-header">
   <h3 class="modal-title">
    Modal Title
   </h3>
   <button class="btn btn-xs btn-icon btn-light" data-modal-dismiss="true">
    <i class="ki-outline ki-cross">
    </i>
   </button>
  </div>
  <div class="modal-body">
   Modal body goes here.
  </div>
 </div>
</div>
These attributes allow you to set options for the KTModal component during initialization. The values you provide as strings are automatically converted to the appropriate KTModal Options .
HTML Attribute Type Default Description
data-modal boolean true Used to auto-initialize KTModal instances on page load. Alternatively, you can remove it and perform initialization using JavaScript.
data-modal-zindex string "auto" Specifies the z-index of the modal.
data-modal-backdrop boolean true Controls whether a backdrop is displayed behind the modal.
data-modal-backdrop-class string "transition-all duration-300 fixed inset-0 bg-gray-900 opacity-25" Defines the CSS classes applied to the modal backdrop.
data-modal-backdrop-static boolean false Specifies whether the modal backdrop is static, preventing modal closure on click.
data-modal-keyboard boolean false Controls whether the modal can be closed by pressing the Escape key.
data-modal-disable-scroll boolean true Specifies whether scrolling on the page is disabled when the modal is open.

JavaScript Initialization

To initialize a new modal component, pass the corresponding DOM element and configuration options to the KTModal class constructor.
JavaScript HTML 
				
					// Modal toggle element
const modalEl = document.querySelector('#my_modal');

// Configuration options(optional)
const options = {
	backdropClass: 'transition-all duration-300 fixed inset-0 bg-gray-900 opacity-25',
	backdrop: true,
	disableScroll: true,
	persistent: true
};

// Initialize object
