Good solution, but the problem here is that the function get's triggered twice, I changed it to
data-toggle="ajax-modal"

To remove dynamic modal loaded in DOM. the following works for me.
$('<div id="clue-modal" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog"><div class="modal-dialog"><div class="modal-content">' + data + '</div></div></div>').modal().on("hidden.bs.modal", function () { $(this).remove(); });
