Checkbox not checkable in dialog ui
- by Sable Foste
I am trying to solve a z-index problem with the jQuery UI Dialog, similar to question Can't select or deselect checkboxes inside jQuery UI Modal Dialog , knowing there is a bug report out there.
So in trying to up the z-index as recommended, I added the following code:
$('#interface').click(function(evform){
$('#interface').prop('z-index')=99999;
});
where the chrome and firefox console.log states:
Uncaught ReferenceError: Invalid left-hand side in assignment
HOWEVER, despite the error, the checkbox now works (throwing the console error every time). If I remove the offending line, the checkbox becomes "unclickable". How can I properly code this?
My HTML:
<div id="dialog" title="Loading...">
<p id="interface">Loading...</p>
</div>
(by the way, I tried adding inline style to the <p>, and it didn't work:
<p id="interface" style="z-index:99999">Loading...</p>
And with AJAX, I replace the contents of '#interface' with valid checkbox html such as:
<label for="right">
<input name="right" type="checkbox">
</label>
and I have the usual jQuery/Dialog UI files included.
One final note, I tried to get creative, since this wasn't working and manually switch the checkbox by:
if ($(evform.target).prop('type')=="checkbox"){
$(evform.target).checked;
}
Thank you to anyone willing to help me figure this out!
