Edit using Modal Window

what is that buttonid thing?

That's nothing.. I just wanted to represent the place where I need the id from the button that launches the modal.

i don't understand what your problem is, you are trying to make a modal to update the employments, that seems quite straight forward

Yes, but what I wanted is to get just one record.. in that edit modal, I want to display (and edit) only the record with the id of 1 for example.. As it is right now, I'm getting all records and editing them all at once because I don't know how to edit just one.. I hope it's clear..

well you have to declare your modal inside of a foreach loop, you see

that way you will have as many modals and forms with the correct id for that object

@foreach($employment as $empl)
<form class="app-form" action="/profile/employment/edit/$empl->id" method="POST">

  {{ csrf_field() }}

  <input class="editID" type="hidden" name="editID" value="">

      <div class="form-group">
        <label for="company">Company:</label>
        <input type="text" name="company" value="{{ $empl->company }}">
      </div>

      <div class="form-group">
        <label for="month">From:</label>
        <input type="date" name="from" value="{{ $empl->from }}">
      </div>

      <div class="form-group">
        <label for="to">To:</label>
        <input type="date" name="to" value="{{ $empl->to }}">
      </div>
    
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-6">
      <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary profile-form-btn" value="Save Changes">
    </div>
  </div>
</form>
@endforeach

I have with modal window (on edit). It won't show/open. Here is my code.

directory.blade.php

 <tbody class="text-center">
                                <?php $i=1; ?>
                                @foreach($directories as $item)
                                <tr>
                                    <td scope="row">{{ $i }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->name }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->surname }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->email }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->phone }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->town }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->country }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->gender }}</td>
                                    <td>{{ $item->status }}</td>
                                    <td><a href="#editDirectory/{{ $item->id}}" data-target="#editDirectory" data-toggle="modal"><img src="{{ asset('storage/admin/edit.png') }}" height=23 width=23 class="mx-auto d-block"/></a></td>
                                    <td><a href="#deleteDirectory{{ $item->id}}" data-toggle="modal" class="text-center"><img src="{{ asset('storage/admin/delete.png') }}" height=23 width=23 class="mx-auto d-block"/></a></td>
                                 <?php $i++; ?>
                                </tr>
                                @endforeach 
 </tbody>

@BarbaraTackaBa start a new question

If the modal is not appearing check the javascript console for errors.

It doesn't show error in console. That is wierd. When I go with mouse on that button it shows (on left down side of screen) correct id. But when I click on it, it just won't open.

I think its the fact that you are appending the model id to the name of the modal. therefore there is no match.

The id needs to be passed to the modal as a data attribute I think

so wait on one page you are creating x amount of forms so that when a user (admin i think) clicks on edit you open the form related to that user?

that seems a bit crazy.. you ideally should get that data on ajax so you dont load x amount of data when an admin may not even do edit.

Hm.. I don't understand you. I try to make normal edit. I don't want to create x amount of forms. I just want make edit by user id.
