bootstrap: Escape key not working on a modal

I’ve implemented Twitter-Bootstrap in my open source Project Visual Alchemist. TwBs its an awesome framework, thanks a lot! However, the escape key works in all my dialogs, except the last one which contains a pre tag. This dialog is shown on the Generate Models button. Here is the HTML partial for it:

 <div id="resultsDialog" class="modal fade">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
        <h4 class="modal-title">Copy below code and run to generate models<span id="databaseName"></span></h4>
      </div>
      <div id="theCode" class="modal-body form-inline">
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
      </div>
    </div><!-- /.modal-content -->
  </div><!-- /.modal-dialog -->
</div><!-- /.modal -->

<script type="text/javascript">
//$("#fieldName").focus();
//document.getElementById("fieldName").focus();
//console.log("Focussed");
</script>
