Thank you, Richard. Where do I put  $("#{modal_id}").appendTo("
body");

Could I just put that in the HTML file? Something like...

<script>
 $("#{modal_id}").appendTo("
body");
</script>

I tried hardcoding the div_id of my modal into your code, but it didn't 
work. The database doesn't update properly with the correct foreign key. I 
also have some date value fields and the calendar.js doesn't pop down so 
I'm thinking this has something to do with

Do you have an example of where you'd put the appendTo ?
