Thank you for the answer Massimo. I did this like you said to put the form 
in the body in index/popup.html however, it didn't pop up like the example 
in the link above. Instead I got it in the same browser. I am guessing my 
implementation is wrong.

<div class="modal fade">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" 
aria-hidden="true">×</button>
        <h4 class="modal-title">Modal title</h4>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        
          {{=form}}
          
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" 
data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
      </div>
    </div><!-- /.modal-content -->
  </div><!-- /.modal-dialog -->
</div><!-- /.modal -->
