I have a jqueryUI dialog popup that is showing on the page... and popping up when requested. Some odd functionality. Anything within the div will show on the page, and the popup will work however be without the contents on the div. I am trying to create the popup before the document is ready. Here is the code that my object is running, again before document ready.
var edit_div=document.createElement('div');
var me = this;
$(edit_div).dialog(
{
autoOpen: false,
height: 400,
width: 600,
resizable: false,
modal: true,
buttons:
{
"Submit": function()
{
me.submitForm();
},
Cancel: function()
{
$( this ).dialog( "close" );
}
},
close: function()
{
},
});
The popup works correctly if I move the dialog creation code to a separate function and call that when the document is ready like so:
$(document).ready(function()
{
mfg_table.init();
}
And the init code to create the dialog
this.init = function()
{
//alert('initing');
var me = this;
$('#' +this.table_id + this.edit_table_name).dialog(
{
autoOpen: false,
height: 400,
width: 600,
resizable: false,
modal: true,
buttons:
{
"Submit": function()
{
me.submitForm();
},
Cancel: function()
{
$( this ).dialog( "close" );
}
},
close: function()
{
},
});
}
So why can't I create the dialog on the DOM object before rendering of the page?
Is it possible your script is being called before your jquery.js files are being loaded by the browser?
Document.ready waits until the page is fully loaded before running your code. The fact that it isn't working correctly without it, implies that the necessary resources aren't being loaded before you try to run your script.
You may want to try to move your inline script to the very end of your html file, particularly after all your .js and plugin files have been referenced.
I wish I could be more specific, but it's hard to see whats going on without more of the code or a live example.
I want to add a jQuery dialog using an string containing html code stored in a variable. Is it possible? Here is some of the tried code.
$("#remove-post").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
height: 'auto',
width: 'auto',
modal: true
});
$("body").delegate("a.delete-post", "click", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
button = $(this);
remove_dialog_html = '<div id="remove-post">Are you sure you want to delete this post? Once, deleted it can\'t be reversed.</div>';
$('#remove-post').dialog("open");
});
You can simply change the html of this element.
$('#remove-post').html('<div id="remove-post">Are you sure you want to delete this post? Once, deleted it can\'t be reversed.</div>');
jsFiddle Demo
Edit:
You can also avoid adding the dialog to the original HTML file, by creating and destroying it when you open and close the dialog.
$('<div></div>')
.appendTo('body')
.html(htmlContent)
.dialog({
autoOpen: true,
height: 'auto',
width: 'auto',
modal: true,
close: function (event, ui) {
$(this).remove();
}
});
jsFiddle Demo
You cannot initialize jQuery dialog like this since it is not in the DOM at the page load time (where jQuery initialize the stuff).
What you have to do is that initialize dialog after adding the html to the DOM.
Just before $('#remove-post').dialog("open");
Are you looking for something like this. Check the fiddle below. Changed the code as per your requirement if this is what you are looking for.
http://jsfiddle.net/8R7xA/1/
$("#remove-post").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
height:'auto',
width:'auto',
modal: true
});
$(document).ready(function(){
var remove_dialog_html= '<div id="remove-post">Are you sure you want to delete this post? Once, deleted it can\'t be reversed.</div>';
$('#remove-post').html(remove_dialog_html);
$('#remove-post').dialog("open");
});

Q1: When i clicked the Cancel Button, all the functions seems to repeat calling itself, and I only encounter this in IE
my HTML
<button class="btnCaller">diag caller 1</button>
<button type="button" class="btnCaller">diag caller 2</button >
<table id="diagMenu" style="display:none">
<tr><td>
<input id="anyField"></input>
<button id="cmdInsertNewProject">Ok</button >
<button id="cmdCancelNewProject">Cancel</button >
</td></tr>
</table>
my JS
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.btnCaller').click(function() {
fnAddNewProject()
AddNewProject_ShowUI()
})
});
function fnAddNewProject() {
$('#diagMenu').dialog({
autoOpen: false,
width: 650,
maxHeight: 1000,
maxWidth: 600,
modal: true,
resizable: false,
title: "Insert New Project",
position: "center"
})
$('#btnRun').click(function() {
alert("do other stuff")
})
$('#cmdInsertNewProject').live('click', function() {
InsertNewProject();
})
$('#cmdCancelNewProject').live('click', function() {
$('#diagMenu').dialog('close');
})
}
function InsertNewProject() {
if ($('#anyField').val() == '') {
alert("Fill up field to continue") //dont close the dialog
return false
} else {
//reset and exit
$('#anyField').val('')
$('#diagMenu').dialog('close');
}
}
function AddNewProject_ShowUI() {
$('#diagMenu').dialog('open');
}
i have this on jsFiddle

There is a problem with how you're registering the event handlers. The click event handlers should be added only once, so this can be done in ready() method.
Also what ever you are doing in fnAddNewProject() should be done only once, not on every click so you can move the function call to ready()
You can see it working here.
Change
.live('click',
to
.click(
and that should fix your problems, I think.
EDIT:
according to http://api.jquery.com/live/, it appears that the .live() command is deprecated. Try using .on() instead.
So, as it has already been pointed out, the way you are registering your handler with the dialog is causing it to be reregistered every time the event happens. As a result, you get the popup repeatedly (because of the new registration every single time).
With that said, you can make use of jQueryUI's dialog's buttons property to attach your buttons (and the corresponding functions) to your dialog and not have to worry about all this event registration. I didn't complete it, but I updated your example here (you'll note - it's a lot more simple). Please note the "buttons" property that is part of the dialog.
$('#diagMenu').dialog({
autoOpen: false,
width: 650,
maxHeight: 1000,
maxWidth: 600,
modal: true,
resizable: false,
title: "Insert New Project",
position: "center",
buttons: {
"OK": function() {
InsertNewProject();
$(this).dialog("close");
},
"Cancel": function() {
$(this).dialog('close');
}
},
Cancel: function() {
$(this).dialog("close");
}
});
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
Laurent
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");
};
});
Apologies if this is overly basic, but I couldn't find much info with my searches.
I have a simple link: delete.
Clicking the link deletes an item from my database.
How do I make the link show a popup (JavaScript alert box?) with a message:
Are you sure? [Yes] [No]
I'd like to use jQuery instead of inline JavaScript, if possible.
Start by giving your element an id.
delete
Then:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#delbtn').click(function(){
return confirm("Are You sure");
});
});
</script>
give id/class to your anchor:
Delete
then on document load assign an event to clicking the link.
$(function(){
//on document ready
$('.btn_del').click(function(e){
return confirm('Are you sure?')
})
})
Use jQuery UI's modal dialogs they're infinitely better than alert.
$("a#delete").click(function() {
$("#dialog").dialog({
bgiframe: true,
resizable: false,
height:140,
modal: true,
overlay: {
backgroundColor: '#000',
opacity: 0.5
},
buttons: {
'Really delete?': function() {
$(this).dialog('close');
delete();
},
Cancel: function() {
$(this).dialog('close');
}
}
});
});
