You are opening a modal from another modal and closing the first. If you're using Bootstrap 3, you can do the following:

In the first modal put the link to the next modal (#modal-1 & #modal-2 are example ids)

  <a href="#modal-2" data-toggle="modal" data-dismiss="modal">Next</a>

In the second modal put the link to the first:

  <a href="#modal-1" data-toggle="modal" data-dismiss="modal">Previous</a>
