Jquery Dialog - Is there a way to open it without registering it using .dialog?
- by Raja
This is my problem. I have a page with multiple tabs. I load those tabs dynamically and one of those tabs is a message container (mail). Every time I click a folder link (Inbox, Sent Mail etc) I reload just that tab alone with appropriate content. I use Jquery dialog to pick contacts and I have to load contacts everytime. Since I reload the whole tab content every time JQuery Dialog registers (or creates) the whole div content. To avoid this I did this:
if ($("#ui-dialog-title-divContacts").length == 0) { //if dialog data is not created then make dialog
$("#divContacts").dialog({
bgiframe: true,
resizable: false,
autoOpen: false,
height: 600,
width: 425,
modal: true,
overlay: {
backgroundColor: '#000',
opacity: 0.5
},
buttons: {
Cancel: function () {
//basically do nothing
$(this).dialog("close");
},
'Done': function () {
$("#divTo").empty().html($("#divSelectedContacts").html());
$(this).dialog("close");
}
}
});
}
I went to generated viewsource in FF and found that only one instance is being created. My problem now is it is not showing the dialog. Is there a way by which I can open this dialog without registering it. Any help is much appreciated.
