Answer 1

If the modal container has a fixed or relative position or is within an element with fixed or relative position this behavior will occur.

Make sure the modal container and all of its parent elements are positioned the default way to fix the problem.

1. Easiest way is to just move the modal div so it is outside any elements with special positioning. One good place might be just before the closing body tag .
2. Alternatively, you can remove position: CSS properties from the modal and its ancestors until the problem goes away. This might change how the page looks and functions, however.
