Centering Bootstrap modal in wide pages - html

On mobile devices, the Bootstrap modal is not centered correctly when the page is wider than 980px, leaving white space on the right of the screen.
I don't want to use a meta viewport that will zoom the page in as I need the full width to show on mobile devices.
The snippet below is using Bootstrap 5. I tried 3 and 4 too.
You can see in the screenshot that the modal div is positioned out of the screen and the backdrop doesn't cover the full width, leaving white space on the right and also pushing page content (the button) to the left.

You can see it here with a phone or using chrome mobile device mode

How to correctly center bootstrap wide modal?

On mobile devices, Bootstrap modal is not centered correctly when body min-width is wider than 980px.
I tried bootstrap 4, bootstrap 5 and bootstrap 3 modals.
You can see in the screenshot that the modal div is positioned out of the screen and the backdrop doesnt cover the full width, leaving white space on the right.

Bootstrap 5 modal not working with starter template [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
bootstrap 5 modal not display at all
(1 answer)
Closed 1 year ago.
I'm trying to implement a simple modal using the Bootstrap 5 starter template (I'm using the Bootstrap Bundle with Popper option) but for some reason, it's not working. I've gone through other similar questions but unfortunately, none of them is working for me. I can't figure out where I'm going wrong.
I have attached the simplified code snippet. I'm trying to avoid using javascript to trigger the modal. I want to use the HTML data-* attributes to trigger the modal.

Why doesn't Bootstrap modal show without invoking javascript code

I created an html page with bootstrap's modal code (copied from Bootstrap's website. I notice that the modal doesn't show unless I call modal('show'). Why? Shouldn't the browser interpret the html and display the modal box? The following code doesn't show the modal but if you comment the script at the end, it will show the modal

Bootstrap modal is designed for trigger the modal window when you click on the element(i.e. a button or a link) with following attributes:
data-toggle="modal" opens the modal window
data-target="#myModal" points to the id of the modal
In your code, no click event occurs and thus modal was not open bydefault
It looks like you want to open modal when page load as the modal is not designed to open on page load you have to manually trigger modal's show Method
since modal works if you clicked on a button to toggle display
this example works fine
see this link https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/modal/#live-demo
You can Use this bootstrap modal code this is working fine.

That is because modaldiv with the class of modal has a display property set to none by default.
Comment the script and inspect the modal in your browser you will notice that it has a display of none.
When you call .modal() and pass in the parameter show on your modal id, then it's display property gets set to block, which is when you are able to see it.
This is because modals are not supposed to be shown by default but instead on a user event so you can call .modal('show)` on the event.
$('#mydialog').modal('show');
