How pass data to a form inside jquery UI dialog modal windows?

Question

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the jquery UI dialog component to display a form; which I successfully did.

However I'm at lost on how to retrieve data to this form inside the dialog window. Is it possible? The example shown on jquery website only shows static messages.

Maybe you can tell us more about the problem. What data do you want do display and in which format is this data (is it form data, javascript objects, dom objects, etc.?)

You talked about a form which is shown via a dialog. Where do you want to access this form data (when the dialog is closed, opened, when the form is submitted, ...)?
