Responsive Modal Image Gallery
This example demonstrates how to use HTML, CSS and JavaScript together, to create a responsive modal image gallery.
We use CSS to create a modal window (dialog box), and hide it by default.
Then, we use a JavaScript to show the modal window with the correct image inside, when a user clicks on the image:
