I have a form and div in the form that I use for the contents of the jQuery dialog box. My goal is to open a dialog box, the user enters some information into text fields and text fields, then submits a form and has this data for my code behind, but then can re-open the dialog (the page remains after sending), enter new data and resubmit the form if they wish.
If I run:
$('div#mydialog').appendTo($('form#foo'));
and then:
$('div#mydialog').dialog('open');
a dialog appears only with buttons, and behind it a div is displayed, inaccessible to the user. (in short, this is similar to cluster communication with user interface widgets)
Why adding div # mydialog to the form (which was supposed to start) and then calling .dialog ('open') leads to this behavior and how can I make it open normally after adding it to form # foo to send custom data to the server?
Thanks in advance
The EDIT: . For some reason, the dialog is not added after it was originally opened. those. it opens or edits / closes a number of times, the user clicks "submit", the div is added to the form, then when I try to open the dialog again ("open"), Firebug shows that it remains in the place where the form is located - jQuery doesn't seem to be trying to move it again, instead just changing its inline styles. Does anyone know why this is so?
