I do not want the modal to be closed when reset is clicked.
It should just reset the inner form.
But my code is closing the modal.

Remove data-bs-dismiss="modal" from your reset button and add it to you close button. Note: if you want the modal to stay open, when the user clicks outside of it, you could add this data-bs-keyboard="false" data-bs-backdrop="static" to the parent div with id="messagemodal"
