I've added a jquery UI dialog to an mvc page. After the dialog is opened I need to catch the bool values if the dialog is dismissed or confirmed.
So far I have tried to add a call back as mentioned in another answer, but I'm not sure how to pass that value back to the $('#escalation').on('click', '.delete', function (evt) so that I may perform a redirect if true.
Question:
How can I pass back a bool value to calling function from Jquery UI modal dialog?
Pseudo code:
This is my intended flow of execution for the below fuctions:
1.Call dialog open on a button click. - (working)
2.Pass back true or false depending on if the user selected 'ok' or 'cancel' in the modal dialog.
3.Close the dialog if the returned result to the button click event is false. Otherwise call window.location.href = RedirectTo; code.
Code:
Dialog markup -
<div id="dialog-confirm" title="Delete Selected Record?">
<p><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-alert" style="float:left; margin:0 7px 20px 0;"></span>This record will be permanently deleted.</p> <p>Are you sure?</p>
</div>
Jquery scripts -
<script>
var baseUri = '#Url.Content("~")';
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#escalation').DataTable({
"order": [[6, "desc"]]
});
$('#escalation').on('click', '.delete', function (evt) {
var cell = $(evt.target).closest("tr").children().first();
var EscalationID = cell.text();
var RedirectTo = baseUri + "/EscalationHistory/DeleteEscalation?EscalationID=" + EscalationID;
////open dialog
evt.preventDefault();
$("#dialog-confirm").dialog("open");
//Need to call this code if the dialog result callback equals true
window.location.href = RedirectTo;
//Otherwise do nothing..close dialog
});
//Dialog opened here, not sure how to pass back the boolean values
//to the delete click function above
$("#dialog-confirm").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
modal: true,
buttons: {
"Confirm": function () {
callback(true);
},
"Cancel": function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
callback(false);
}
}
});
});
</script>
Just write your target code inside button click handler or set a flag and use $(".selector").on("dialogclose", function(event, ui) {}); event handler to check the flag state.

$(".btn").click(function() {
var escalationId = $(this).data("escalation-id");
var redirectTo = baseUri + "/EscalationHistory/DeleteEscalation?EscalationID=" + escalationId;
// Use "bind" instead "on" if jQuery < 1.7
$("#dialog-confirm").dialog("open").on("dialogclose", function(event, ui) {
if ($(this).data("state") == "confirmed") {
location.replace(redirectTo);
}
});
});
});

<button class="btn" data-escalation-id="124">Delete 124</button>

</body>

But, IMO, logically better to write the code directly in button click handler.
Got a popup legal notice inside an simplemodal window (iframe) that's working exactly as I expect it to. There's a form in the iframe that when you submit it, the modal window closes and you continue on to your destination - in this case, a "mailto:" link.
Problem is - I need a separate "close" function that doesn't open the mailto link, just closes the modal. Currently, submitting the form OR clicking the "close" link both open the "mailto" link.
What I've got so far:
Inside my iFrame to handle the form submit:
$('#alertFORM').submit(function() {
window.parent.jQuery.modal.close(true);
});
And my functions handling everything else:
$('.legalnotice').on('click', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var src = "email_alert.html";
var mailto = $(this).attr('href');
$.modal('<iframe src="' + src + '" height="400" width="390" style="border:0" id="legalFRAME">', {
closeHTML: "<a href='#'>Close</a>",
closeCLASS: "simplemodal-close",
containerId: "modal",
containerCss: {
backgroundColor: "#f8f8f8",
borderColor: "#f8f8f8",
height: 500,
padding: 0,
width: 400
},
overlayClose: true,
onClose: function (dialog) {
$.modal.close();
window.location.href = mailto;
}
});
});
});
I believe I understand the problem - both the form submit and the 'close' link call the onClose function. Haven't quite figured out ow to seperate the two yet so only the form submit opens the 'mailto' link.
I've tried changing the code in my iFrame:
$('#alertFORM').submit(function() {
parent.closeModal();
});
... and then back on the parent page at the top of my javascript above:
function closeModal() {
$("#modal").dialog("close");
}
... but that doesn't work.
Actively working on it. Suggestions most appreciated.
Got it finally! Inside the file in my iFrame:
$('#alertFORM').submit(function() {
window.showEmail = "true";
window.parent.jQuery.modal.close(true);
});
$( ".modalCloseImg" ).on('click', function (e) {
window.parent.jQuery.modal.close(true);
});
... and back on the parent page:
onClose: function (dialog) {
window.redirectEmail = window.legalFRAME.showEmail;
if(window.redirectEmail == "true")
{
window.location.href = mailto;
window.legalFRAME.showEmail = "false";
window.redirectEmail = "false";
}
$.modal.close();
}
I am trying to show a modal window using jquery.simplemodal.js JQuery plugin everytime I click on a row of a JQGrid.
After doing it, once the user click "Yes" on the modal window I show a document on an Iframe using the info retrieved from my row, if they click "No" then the Iframe shows a form to edit some info related to this document. The idea is to keep the Iframe content blank until the user clicks on one of the buttons. To accomplish this I am using JQGrid onSelectRow event as follows:
onSelectRow: function () {
var id = $("#tabResBusUbi").getGridParam('selrow');
var row = $('#tabResBusUbi').jqGrid('getRowData', id);
viewDocument = false;
myconfirm('Open the document view?', function () {
viewDocument = true;
});
if (viewDocument) {
$('#ifrShowPdf').ready(function () {
$('#divLoading').css('display', 'none');
});
$('#ifrShowPdf').attr('src', 'resource\\' + row.filepath);
$('#ifrShowPdf').css('display', 'block');
} else {
var rnd = Math.floor(Math.random() * 11);
$('#ifrShowPdf').attr('src', 'document.asp?r=' + rnd + '&o=d&a=a&p=' + id);
$('#ifrShowPdf').css('display', 'block');
}
return false;
}
function myconfirm(message, callback) {
$('#confirm').modal({
closeHTML: "<a href='#' title='Close' class='modal-close'>x</a>",
position: ["20%", ],
overlayId: 'confirm-overlay',
containerId: 'confirm-container',
onShow: function (dialog) {
var modal = this;
$('.message', dialog.data[0]).append(message);
$('.yes', dialog.data[0]).click(function () {
if ($.isFunction(callback)) {
callback.apply();
$('#confirm-overlay').css('z-index', 5000);
}
modal.close();
});
}
});
}
After I click on the row, the modal popups, but also the Iframe shows the edit document form even when I haven't clicked on any of the option buttons. If I click the "Yes" option after, the document is viewed but, this is not what I intend to do.
I would appreciate any suggestions to make this work.
I have a jQuery UI Dialog that gets displayed when specific elements are clicked. I would like to close the dialog if a click occurs anywhere other than on those triggering elements or the dialog itself.
Here's the code for opening the dialog:
$(document).ready(function() {
var $field_hint = $('<div></div>')
.dialog({
autoOpen: false,
minHeight: 50,
resizable: false,
width: 375
});
$('.hint').click(function() {
var $hint = $(this);
$field_hint.html($hint.html());
$field_hint.dialog('option', 'position', [162, $hint.offset().top + 25]);
$field_hint.dialog('option', 'title', $hint.siblings('label').html());
$field_hint.dialog('open');
});
/*$(document).click(function() {
$field_hint.dialog('close');
});*/
});
If I uncomment the last part, the dialog never opens. I assume it's because the same click that opens the dialog is closing it again.
Final Working Code
Note: This is using the jQuery outside events plugin
$(document).ready(function() {
// dialog element to .hint
var $field_hint = $('<div></div>')
.dialog({
autoOpen: false,
minHeight: 0,
resizable: false,
width: 376
})
.bind('clickoutside', function(e) {
$target = $(e.target);
if (!$target.filter('.hint').length
&& !$target.filter('.hintclickicon').length) {
$field_hint.dialog('close');
}
});
// attach dialog element to .hint elements
$('.hint').click(function() {
var $hint = $(this);
$field_hint.html('<div style="max-height: 300px;">' + $hint.html() + '</div>');
$field_hint.dialog('option', 'position', [$hint.offset().left - 384, $hint.offset().top + 24 - $(document).scrollTop()]);
$field_hint.dialog('option', 'title', $hint.siblings('label').html());
$field_hint.dialog('open');
});
// trigger .hint dialog with an anchor tag referencing the form element
$('.hintclickicon').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$($(this).get(0).hash + ' .hint').trigger('click');
});
});
Sorry to drag this up after so long but I used the below. Any disadvantages? See the open function...
$("#popup").dialog(
{
height: 670,
width: 680,
modal: true,
autoOpen: false,
close: function(event, ui) { $('#wrap').show(); },
open: function(event, ui)
{
$('.ui-widget-overlay').bind('click', function()
{
$("#popup").dialog('close');
});
}
});
Forget using another plugin:
Here are 3 methods to close a jquery UI dialog when clicking outside popin:
If the dialog is modal/has background overlay: http://jsfiddle.net/jasonday/6FGqN/
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery("#dialog").dialog({
bgiframe: true,
autoOpen: false,
height: 100,
modal: true,
open: function(){
jQuery('.ui-widget-overlay').bind('click',function(){
jQuery('#dialog').dialog('close');
})
}
});
});
If dialog is non-modal Method 1: method 1: http://jsfiddle.net/jasonday/xpkFf/
// Close Pop-in If the user clicks anywhere else on the page
jQuery('body')
.bind(
'click',
function(e){
if(
jQuery('#dialog').dialog('isOpen')
&& !jQuery(e.target).is('.ui-dialog, a')
&& !jQuery(e.target).closest('.ui-dialog').length
){
jQuery('#dialog').dialog('close');
}
}
);
Non-Modal dialog Method 2: http://jsfiddle.net/jasonday/eccKr/
$(function() {
$( "#dialog" ).dialog({
autoOpen: false,
minHeight: 100,
width: 342,
draggable: true,
resizable: false,
modal: false,
closeText: 'Close',
open: function() {
closedialog = 1;
$(document).bind('click', overlayclickclose);
},
focus: function() {
closedialog = 0;
},
close: function() {
$(document).unbind('click');
}
});
$('#linkID').click(function() {
$('#dialog').dialog('open');
closedialog = 0;
});
var closedialog;
function overlayclickclose() {
if (closedialog) {
$('#dialog').dialog('close');
}
//set to one because click on dialog box sets to zero
closedialog = 1;
}
});
Check out the jQuery Outside Events plugin
Lets you do:
$field_hint.bind('clickoutside',function(){
$field_hint.dialog('close');
});
Just add this global script, which closes all the modal dialogs just clicking outsite them.
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(document.body).on("click", ".ui-widget-overlay", function()
{
$.each($(".ui-dialog"), function()
{
var $dialog;
$dialog = $(this).children(".ui-dialog-content");
if($dialog.dialog("option", "modal"))
{
$dialog.dialog("close");
}
});
});;
});
$(".ui-widget-overlay").click (function () {
$("#dialog-id").dialog( "close" );
});
Fiddle showing the above code in action.
I had to do two parts. First the outside click-handler:
$(document).on('click', function(e){
if ($(".ui-dialog").length) {
if (!$(e.target).parents().filter('.ui-dialog').length) {
$('.ui-dialog-content').dialog('close');
}
}
});
This calls dialog('close') on the generic ui-dialog-content class, and so will close all dialogs if the click didn't originate in one. It will work with modal dialogs too, since the overlay is not part of the .ui-dialog box.
The problem is:
Most dialogs are created because of clicks outside of a dialog
This handler runs after those clicks have created a dialog and bubbled up to the document, so it immediately closes them.
To fix this, I had to add stopPropagation to those click handlers:
moreLink.on('click', function (e) {
listBox.dialog();
e.stopPropagation(); //Don't trigger the outside click handler
});
This question is a bit old, but in case someone wants to close a dialog that is NOT modal when user clicks somewhere, you can use this that I took from the JQuery UI Multiselect plugin. The main advantage is that the click is not "lost" (if user wants to click on a link or a button, the action is done).
$myselector.dialog({
title: "Dialog that closes when user clicks outside",
modal:false,
close: function(){
$(document).off('mousedown.mydialog');
},
open: function(event, ui) {
var $dialog = $(this).dialog('widget');
$(document).on('mousedown.mydialog', function(e) {
// Close when user clicks elsewhere
if($dialog.dialog('isOpen') && !$.contains($myselector.dialog('widget')[0], e.target)){
$myselector.dialog('close');
}
});
}
});
You can do this without using any additional plug-in
var $dialog= $(document.createElement("div")).appendTo(document.body);
var dialogOverlay;
$dialog.dialog({
title: "Your title",
modal: true,
resizable: true,
draggable: false,
autoOpen: false,
width: "auto",
show: "fade",
hide: "fade",
open:function(){
$dialog.dialog('widget').animate({
width: "+=300",
left: "-=150"
});
//get the last overlay in the dom
$dialogOverlay = $(".ui-widget-overlay").last();
//remove any event handler bound to it.
$dialogOverlay.unbind();
$dialogOverlay.click(function(){
//close the dialog whenever the overlay is clicked.
$dialog.dialog("close");
});
}
});
Here $dialog is the dialog.
What we are basically doing is to get the last overlay widget whenever this dialog is opened and binding a click handler to that overlay to close $dialog as anytime the overlay is clicked.
no need for the outside events plugin...
just add an event handler to the .ui-widget-overlay div:
jQuery(document).on('click', 'body > .ui-widget-overlay', function(){
jQuery("#ui-dialog-selector-goes-here").dialog("close");
return false;
});
just make sure that whatever selector you used for the jQuery ui dialog, is also called to close it.. i.e. #ui-dialog-selector-goes-here
This doesn't use jQuery UI, but does use jQuery, and may be useful for those who aren't using jQuery UI for whatever reason. Do it like so:
function showDialog(){
$('#dialog').show();
$('*').on('click',function(e){
$('#zoomer').hide();
});
}
$(document).ready(function(){
showDialog();
});
So, once I've shown a dialog, I add a click handler that only looks for the first click on anything.
Now, it would be nicer if I could get it to ignore clicks on anything on #dialog and its contents, but when I tried switching $('*') with $(':not("#dialog,#dialog *")'), it still detected #dialog clicks.
Anyway, I was using this purely for a photo lightbox, so it worked okay for that purpose.
The given example(s) use one dialog with id '#dialog', i needed a solution that close any dialog:
$.extend($.ui.dialog.prototype.options, {
modal: true,
open: function(object) {
jQuery('.ui-widget-overlay').bind('click', function() {
var id = jQuery(object.target).attr('id');
jQuery('#'+id).dialog('close');
})
}
});
Thanks to my colleague Youri Arkesteijn for the suggestion of using prototype.
This is the only method that worked for me for my NON-MODAL dialog
$(document).mousedown(function(e) {
var clicked = $(e.target); // get the element clicked
if (clicked.is('#dlg') || clicked.parents().is('#dlg') || clicked.is('.ui-dialog-titlebar')) {
return; // click happened within the dialog, do nothing here
} else { // click was outside the dialog, so close it
$('#dlg').dialog("close");
}
});

Click outside non-modal dialog to close
For those you are interested I've created a generic plugin that enables to close a dialog when clicking outside of it whether it a modal or non-modal dialog. It supports one or multiple dialogs on the same page.
More information here: http://www.coheractio.com/blog/closing-jquery-ui-dialog-widget-when-clicking-outside

I use this solution based in one posted here:
var g_divOpenDialog = null;
function _openDlg(l_d) {
// http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2554779/jquery-ui-close-dialog-when-clicked-outside
jQuery('body').bind(
'click',
function(e){
if(
g_divOpenDialog!=null
&& !jQuery(e.target).is('.ui-dialog, a')
&& !jQuery(e.target).closest('.ui-dialog').length
){
_closeDlg();
}
}
);
setTimeout(function() {
g_divOpenDialog = l_d;
g_divOpenDialog.dialog();
}, 500);
}
function _closeDlg() {
jQuery('body').unbind('click');
g_divOpenDialog.dialog('close');
g_divOpenDialog.dialog('destroy');
g_divOpenDialog = null;
}
I had same problem while making preview modal on one page. After a lot of googling I found this very useful solution. With event and target it is checking where click happened and depending on it triggers the action or does nothing.
Code Snippet Library site
$('#modal-background').mousedown(function(e) {
var clicked = $(e.target);
if (clicked.is('#modal-content') || clicked.parents().is('#modal-content'))
return;
} else {
$('#modal-background').hide();
}
});
İt's simple actually you don't need any plugins, just jquery or you can do it with simple javascript.
$('#dialog').on('click', function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
});
$(document.body).on('click', function(e){
master.hide();
});
I don't think finding dialog stuff using $('.any-selector') from the whole DOM is so bright.
Try
$('<div />').dialog({
open: function(event, ui){
var ins = $(this).dialog('instance');
var overlay = ins.overlay;
overlay.off('click').on('click', {$dialog: $(this)}, function(event){
event.data.$dialog.dialog('close');
});
}
});
You're really getting the overlay from the dialog instance it belongs to, things will never go wrong this way.
With the following code, you can simulate a click on the 'close' button of the dialog (change the string 'MY_DIALOG' for the name of your own dialog)
$("div[aria-labelledby='ui-dialog-title-MY_DIALOG'] div.ui-helper-clearfix a.ui-dialog-titlebar-close")[0].click();
Smart Code:
I am using following code so that every thing remains clear and readable.
out side body will close the dialog box.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('body').on('click', '.ui-widget-overlay', closeDialogBox);
});
function closeDialogBox() {
$('#dialog-message').dialog('close');
}
I ended up using this code which should work on any open dialogs on the page, ignores clicks on tooltips, and cleans up the resources of the dialog being closed as well.
$(document).mousedown(function(e) {
var clicked = $(e.target); // get the element clicked
if (clicked.is('.ui-dialog-content, .ui-dialog-titlebar, .ui-tooltip') || clicked.parents().is('.ui-dialog-content, .ui-dialog-titlebar, .ui-tooltip')) {
return; // click happened within the dialog, do nothing here
} else { // click was outside the dialog, so close it
$('.ui-dialog-content').dialog("close");
$('.ui-dialog-content').dialog("destroy");
$('.ui-dialog-content').detach();
}
});
I just ran across the need to close .dialog(s) with an out of element click. I have a page with a lot of info dialogs, so I needed something to handle them all. This is how I handled it:
$(document).ready(function () {
$(window).click(function (e) {
$(".dialogGroup").each(function () {
$(this).dialog('close');
})
});
$("#lostEffClick").click(function () {
event.stopPropagation();
$("#lostEffDialog").dialog("open");
};
});
