Hello Punk! I am again... sorry for that.
The follow up question that come up in my invisible head about this journal:
1 Endpoint Do 5 Things for HTMX DataTable
is... How can I create a modal that display form to create a new supplier in my app and load the content from backend (Yes! PHP) that generate the content, also doing validation and stuff, and removing the modal after the create operation is done!.
Hmmm... my question is super interesting. I would not compare with other approach (I mean language or framework), I just want to share what I am doing before (Yes! my fck PHP Framework)
Technically, I am so proud of myself and I need to prepare for something interesting and wasting my time! 😏 Oh yeah beibeh
What's The Plan?! #

The Meme #
The Hypertext Markup Language of The Modal #
This not fully HTML (I see it bro!). Also have a PHP tag inside (Seriously!?) that's part of my fck PHP Framework (Fck'it bro!).
The Create Button #

The Modal Itself! #

Wait... what is this?!
1<div id="modal" _="on closeModal wait 250ms add .closing then wait for animationend then remove me">
2 <div class="modal-underlay" _="on click trigger closeModal"></div>
and this
1<button class="btn btn-sm btn-ghost btn-circle" _="on click trigger closeModal"><?= Icons::use('XMark') ?></button>
Oh sorry, I am not mention it before. If you don't know what is that, that's the _hyperscript.
When the XMark button is clicked then the button will be send event called closeModal, where the closeModal event is received at:
1<div id="modal" _="on closeModal wait 250ms add .closing then wait for animationend then remove me">
So whenever this event is (on) triggered they will wait 250ms and add-ing a .closing class in that element then wait for animationend then remove me me mean that element itself.
Huuuuuh... how good I am explaining!? Dang bro... that sound weird for me!
First Milestone #
The first milestone is to create this and display it. In this moment is not doing anything. But after we create a routing for that modal request and adding some CSS (that I copy and paste in the htmx docs example)

This route is corresponding to get the modal content from the backend (Yes! PHP). then display in the body of the page as mentioned in this button and swap it beforeend:
1<button class="btn btn-sm btn-neutral" hx-get="<?= base_url('suppliers/create') ?>" hx-target="body" hx-swap="beforeend" id="exclude-indicator"><?= Icons::use('Plus', 'h-4 w-4') ?>Create new</button>

That's it! Here I am...
If anything goes wrong or not working! It's my fault! not me. (Are you confuse? Yes, me too...)
See ya in the next stone! 👋 I am so tired!!! Hope you mad of me... thank you very much, I appreciate that...
