Twitter Bootstrap modal on mobile devices

Question

Bootstrap modals don\'t work correctly on Android and iOS. The issue tracker acknowledges the problem but does not offer a working solution:

Modals in 2.0 are broke

Answer 1

We use this code to center the Bootstrap modal dialogs when they open. I haven't had any issue with them on iOS while using this but I'm not sure if it will work for Android.

$('.modal').on('show', function(e) {
    var modal = $(this);
    modal.css('margin-top', (modal.outerHeight() / 2) * -1)
         .css('margin-left', (modal.outerWidth() / 2) * -1);
    return this;
});
