+## Varying modal content based on trigger button
+
+Have a bunch of buttons that all trigger the same modal, just with slightly different contents? Use `event.relatedTarget` and [HTML `data-*` attributes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/Using_data_attributes) (possibly [via jQuery](http://api.jquery.com/data/)) to vary the contents of the modal depending on which button was clicked. See the Modal Events docs for details on `relatedTarget`.

## Usage
The modal plugin toggles your hidden content on demand, via data attributes or JavaScript. It also adds `.modal-open` to the `<body>` to override default scrolling behavior and generates a `.modal-backdrop` to provide a click area for dismissing shown modals when clicking outside the modal.
