Close popup by clicking the outside area using jQuery

I am working with this tutorial to create a popup using Divi. https://divilover.com/divi-popup-without-plugins-tutorial/ I am having difficulty modifying the javascript to close the popup by clicking the outside area. Here is the code: ( I have tried many edits but StackOverflow is complaining I have already entered too much code. )

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    
    
    $('.dl-popup-content').each(function(){
        $(this).wrap('<div class="dl-popup-wrapper"><div class="dl-popup-inside">');
    });
        
        
    $('.dl-popup-trigger, .dl-menu-popup > a').off().click(function(e){
        e.preventDefault();
        SectionID = $(this).attr('href');
        $(SectionID).closest('.dl-popup-wrapper').addClass('popup-is-visible');
        $(SectionID).closest('.et_builder_inner_content').addClass('popup-is-visible');
        $('body').addClass('dl-noscroll');
                
    }); 
            
    $('.dl-popup-close').click(function(e){
        e.preventDefault();
        $('.popup-is-visible').removeClass('popup-is-visible');
        $('body').removeClass('dl-noscroll');
        
        var PopupVideoIframe = $(this).closest('.dl-popup-content').find('.et_pb_video_box iframe');
        var PopupVideoSrc = PopupVideoIframe.attr("src");
        PopupVideoIframe.attr("src", PopupVideoSrc);
        
        var PopupVideoHTML = $(this).closest('.dl-popup-content').find('.et_pb_video_box video');
        PopupVideoHTML.trigger('pause');
    });


});

Solution

To make the popup close when clicking outside of it, you need to add event listeners that detect clicks outside the .dl-popup-content area. Here's an update to your JavaScript that will properly handle this functionality.

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    
    // Wrap the popup content inside a wrapper
    $('.dl-popup-content').each(function() {
        $(this).wrap('<div class="dl-popup-wrapper"><div class="dl-popup-inside">');
    });

    // Trigger to open the popup when the button/link is clicked
    $('.dl-popup-trigger, .dl-menu-popup > a').off().click(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var SectionID = $(this).attr('href');
        $(SectionID).closest('.dl-popup-wrapper').addClass('popup-is-visible');
        $(SectionID).closest('.et_builder_inner_content').addClass('popup-is-visible');
        $('body').addClass('dl-noscroll');
    });

    // Close the popup when the close button is clicked
    $('.dl-popup-close').click(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        closePopup();
    });

    // Close the popup when clicking outside the popup content (wrapper)
    $(document).click(function(e) {
        // If the click is outside of the popup content, close the popup
        if (!$(e.target).closest('.dl-popup-content').length && !$(e.target).closest('.dl-popup-trigger').length) {
            closePopup();
        }
    });

    // Function to close the popup
    function closePopup() {
        $('.popup-is-visible').removeClass('popup-is-visible');
        $('body').removeClass('dl-noscroll');
        
        // If there's a video inside the popup, stop the video
        var PopupVideoIframe = $('.popup-is-visible').find('.et_pb_video_box iframe');
        var PopupVideoSrc = PopupVideoIframe.attr("src");
        PopupVideoIframe.attr("src", PopupVideoSrc); // Reset the iframe src to stop the video

        var PopupVideoHTML = $('.popup-is-visible').find('.et_pb_video_box video');
        PopupVideoHTML.trigger('pause'); // Pause the video
    }
});
