Click once to open dialog

Im trying to use dialog() and it's working, but I have to click two times for the dialog text to open. My latest test was adding return false; after jQuery(this).dialog("close");.
jQuery("#divId").on('click', function() {
jQuery("divclass").dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: "Info",
width: 800,
height: 600,
modal: true,
buttons: {
close: function() {jQuery(this).dialog("close");return false;}
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

The definition of the jQuery dialog should be outside the click listener.
also, if you want to open it on click event, you should change the autoOpen to false.
$("#divId").on('click', function() {
$(".divclass").dialog( "open" );
});
$(".divclass").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
title: "Info",
width: 800,
height: 600,
modal: true,
buttons: {
close: function() {$(this).dialog("close");return false;}
}
});

How to use div.load properly when calling for a partial view in another controller?

So i have this code that calls a popup dialog that contains a partial view. The problem is that whenever i call the dialog div.load appends the entire string block to the address of the home controller.
function OpenSendMessagePopUp() {
var div = $("#DivAppendToPartialView");
div.load("#Url.Content(~/Resend/_SendMessage.cshtml)", function () {
div.dialog({
modal: true,
width: 500,
height: 420,
show: 'blind',
hide: 'blind',
title: "Send Message",
draggable: false,
resizable: false,
buttons: {
"Cancel": function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
}
}
});
});
}
function SaveMessage() {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '#Url.Content("~/Resend/_SendMessage.cshtml")',
data: {
smsContentId: smsContentId,
comments: comments
},
});
The MobileNumberUpload is the home controller for the project while Resend is the controller for the Partial View. Note that I cannot combine the two controllers as per the constraints of the project.
Error Message for when i click the button
This is the dialog that pops up when i click the button

Try below changes :
function OpenSendMessagePopUp() {
var div = $("#DivAppendToPartialView");
div.load('#Url.Content("~/Resend/_SendMessage.cshtml")', function () {
div.dialog({
modal: true,
width: 500,
height: 420,
show: 'blind',
hide: 'blind',
title: "Send Message",
draggable: false,
resizable: false,
buttons: {
"Cancel": function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
}
}
});
});
}
function SaveMessage() {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '#Url.Content("~/Resend/_SendMessage.cshtml")',
data: {
"smsContentId": smsContentId,
"comments": comments
},
});
}
Also make sure smsContentId and comments should be declared in JS.

jTable raise formSubmitting with custom jQueryUI Modal

I am not being able to raise the formSubmitting event when I am submitting a custom jQueryUI modal using jTable. Following is the jqeuryui modal code:
$("#editDialog").dialog({
height: 600,
width: 500,
autoOpen: false,
modal: true,
show: {
effect: "fade",
duration: 250
},
hide: {
effect: "fade",
duration: 250
},
buttons: {
Cancel: function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
},
Save: function () {
$(this).find("form").submit();
$(this).dialog('close');
}
},
close: function () {
//allFields.val("").removeClass("ui-state-error");
}
});
Any suggestion on how to achieve this is highly appreciated.

Could not. Ended up showing the custom modal on own bound click event.

jquery modal-dialog button close doesn't work properly

$(function () {
$('#modalDlg2').live("click", function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
loadDialog(event, "/User/Create");
});
function loadDialog(event, target) {
var $dialog = $('<div></div>');
$dialog.empty();
$dialog
.load(target)
.dialog({
title:"Novo utilizador",
modal: true,
autoOpen: false,
width: 600,
show:'fade',
hide:'fade',
minHeight: 400,
resizable: false
});
$dialog.dialog( "option", "buttons", {
"Cancelar": function() {
$(this).dialog("close");
$(this).empty();
} });
$dialog.dialog('open');
}
})
I have a problem with my close button "Cancelar" it should close the modal dialog and then empty it, but it seems that $(this).dialog("close") does not work, and .empty() does.
I've looked everywere for the solution of my problem. Could anyone help me with this?

try this:
$dialog.dialog( "option", "buttons", {
"Cancelar": function() {
$dialog.dialog("close");
$(this).empty();
}
});
$dialog.dialog('open');
or
$dialog.dialog( "option", "buttons", {
"Cancelar": $.proxy(function() {
$(this).dialog("close");
$(this).empty();
},this)
});
$dialog.dialog('open');

I would try putting this in a callback function for the load:
$(function() {
$('#modalDlg2').on("click", function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
loadDialog(event, "/User/Create");
});
function loadDialog(event, target) {
var $dialog = $('<div></div>');
$dialog.empty();
$dialog.load(target, function() {
$dialog.dialog({
title: "Novo utilizador",
modal: true,
autoOpen: false,
width: 600,
show: 'fade',
hide: 'fade',
minHeight: 400,
resizable: false
});
$dialog.dialog("option", "buttons", {
"Cancelar": function() {
$(this).dialog("close");
$(this).empty();
}
});
$dialog.dialog('open');
});
});

Try the following code:
$dialog.dialog("option", "buttons", { "Cancelar": function() { $(this).remove(); } });

Why does jQuery dialog shrink while fading out?

$("#dialog").dialog({
resizable: false,
height:140,
modal: true,
hide: {effect: "fadeOut", duration: 5000},
buttons: {
Save: function() {
alert("Saved");
$("#dialog").dialog( "close" );
},
Cancel: function() {
$("#dialog").dialog( "close" );
}
}
});
I'm using Chrome. Here's a demo.
When I close the dialog, it hides, but also shrinks.
I didn't tell it to shrink! Why does it do that?

Using fade instead of fadeOut will solve the issue.
Check this: http://jsbin.com/alafez/4/edit#preview

Because fadeIn and fadeOut are not valid values for the show and hide options. If you remove effect: "fadeOut", the result will be same. The valid option is fade.

$("#dialog").dialog({
resizable: false,
height:140,
modal: true,
hide: {effect: "fade", duration: 5000},
buttons: {
Save: function() {
alert("Saved");
$("#dialog").dialog( "close" );
},
Cancel: function() {
$("#dialog").dialog( "close" );
}
}
});
