Anyone can help me figure out why my form modal keeps showing up under my footnotes instead of with button tiggers?

Here's what I have. The code for the form modal is at the bottom and I added data-toggle="modal" data-target="#register" to both the callout and jumbotron buttons

I ran your code through a validator service (give it a try) and it came up with three errors. One of which is: Error: Bogus comment. At line 275, column 6

That is the line here:

   <! ==========================================
      FORM MODAL
    ==========================================

By changing that to a comment:

   <!-- ==========================================
      FORM MODAL
    ==========================================
-->

The modal form displayed as it should only when clicking the button

Thank you! Both for your help and the recommendation of using a validator service.
