Here is the code where I am inserting the csss

 define([
        'underscore',
        'backbone',
        'jquery',
        'splunkjs/mvc',
        'splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager',
        'splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/element/table',
        ], function(_, Backbone, $, mvc, SearchManager, TableElement) {
        var modalTemplate = "<div id=\"pivotModal\" class=\"modal\">" +
                            "<div class=\"modal-header\" style=\"font-size:14px;\"><b><%- title %></b></div>" +
                            "<div class=\"modal-body\"></div>" +
                            "<div class=\"modal-footer\"><button "+
                            "class=\"dtsBtn close\">Close</button></div>" +

@mjlsnombrado you can override the Table CSS directly from Simple XML or an independent CSS file using Simple XML CSS Extension, without having to depend on jquery to add CSS().

Looking at you code you can add the following in Dashboard to test:

  <row depends="$alwaysHideCSSPanel$">
    <panel>
      <html>
        <style>
          #detailTable table td{
            padding: 3px; 
            text-align: center
          }

          #detailTable table table{
            border-collapse:collapse;
            width: 100%;
            font-family: arial;
            font-size: 10px;
            margin-left:20px
          }

          #detailTable table th{
            position: absolute;
            top: -9999px !important;
            left: -9999px !important
          }

          #detailTable table tr{
            border-radius: 12px;
            width: 10%;
            display: inline-block;
            margin-right: 8px;
            margin-bottom: 8px
          }

          #detailTable table td{
            border: none;
            position: relative;
            padding-left: 12%;
            text-align: left
          }

          #detailTable table td:before{
            position: absolute;
            top: 6px;
            left: 6px;
            width: 45%;
            padding-right: 5px;
            white-space: nowrap
          }
        </style>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>

PS: I think display: inline-block; should be display: inline-grid; but not sure about your final layout. So you would need to test and apply yourself.
Once you are done testing you can move the code in <style>...</style> block to separate css file and keep it clubbed along with JS for modal view.

@mjlsnombrado when the modal pop up appears can you use Browser Inspector Tool to get the CSS Selector for the table and verify with the selectors I have used?

Is the issue with CSS style or data not showing up in Modal table?

Hi @nicketnilay, the issue is with the CSS not applying to the table inside the modal, I've just removed the contents because it contains sites/info and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to share it so I just remove it, I've already used the inspector tool and it shows the table attributes inside the modal is the same with the normal Splunk table and when I edit these attributes it applies to all the tables on the dashboard, what I want is to apply an id/class to the table inside the popup modal so that it will not affect the other tables but I do not know how can I apply an id to the table inside the modal, the modal view I am using is based on the hurricane labs. thanks 🙂

It worked, I've used the other i.d. #modalVizualization and created an inline css thanks Nicketnilay
