[Rails] Problems showing modals when page is loaded with turbolinks

[Alexander Trust]

Hello.

I'm trying to use modals for the output of :notices or :errors.

In the application.html.erb I use:

<% flash.each do |name, msg| %>
        <% if msg.is_a?(String) %>
            <div id="modal1" class="modal">
              <div class="modal-content">
                <p><%= msg %></p>
              </div>
              <div class="modal-footer">
                <a href="#!" class="modal-action modal-close waves-effect 
waves-green btn-flat">Close</a>
              </div>
            </div>
         <% end %>
<% end %>



In my application.js file I use:

var ready;
ready = function() {


    var modal1 = document.getElementById('#modal1');
    if (modal1.length > 0) {
        $('#modal1').openModal();
    }
};


$(document).ready(ready);
$(document).on('page:load', ready);

I tried checking if the string is not null too, but this won't change a 
thing. Only if I use:

var ready;
ready = function() {

$('#modal1').openModal();

}

$(document).ready(ready);
$(document).on('page:load', ready);

it works, but then it is shown everytime a page is reloaded an I don't want 
this behaviour. Why do those checks not work? Any help would be appreciated.

Kind regards.
