Im trying to make a basic student list webpage using bootstrap. What I want to do is that when the modal button is pressed, a modal pops up that lets the user type in the requested details, but before that I just copy pasted the code in bootstrap's site to test first if everything is well and implemented.
this is my code so far:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.css">
<title>Student List</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-8" id="pageName">
<h1>Student List</h1>
</div>
<div class="col-4" id="newButton">
<!-- Button trigger modal -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal">
Launch demo modal
</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="exampleModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLabel">Modal title</h5>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
...
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<hr>
<table class="table">
<thead class="thead-dark" id="tableHeader">
<tr>
<th scope="col">ID</th>
<th scope="col">Last Name</th>
<th scope="col">First Name</th>
<th scope="col">Course</th>
<th scope="col">Average</th>
</tr>
</thead id="tableContent">
<tbody>
</tbody>
</table>

</html>
my problem is that when I press the button, nothing happens. The button in itself is fine, it can be pressed and stuff, but the modal does not pop up. Have i missed something or have not implemented something?

You are using bootstrap 5 so use data-bs-toggle instead of data-toggle and use data-bs-target instead of data-target
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="modal" data-bs-target="#exampleModal">
Launch demo modal
</button>
