Question

jQuery UI dialog on ASP.NET page (inside user control)

Answer 1

+2 A:

Where are you creating the dialog? There should be some code like this which gets called when the DOM is ready;

$(document).ready(function(){

  var dialogOpts = {
    autoOpen: false,
    modal: true,
    width: 620,
    height: 660
  };

  $("#dlg-discount").dialog(dialogOpts);

}

And then you can call $("#dlg-discount").dialog('open') in your onclick method.

@Dave Anderson: that's pretty much exactly what I'm doing. In FF, the dialog comes up just fine (now), but goes away after a second or so. In IE 8, I get a separate page - really really strange.....

Your setup sounds almost the same as ours except we use an asp:ScriptManagerProxy to load the js files rather than the Ajax one and call jQuery.noConflict() to release the reference to $ and use jQuery object instead. We do have some MS Ajax controls on the page too which should load the same js as you. Maybe they have problems without it? See api.jquery.com/jQuery.noConflict/

Thanks for your comments, Dave! Between those and fiddling with CSS, removing the MS Ajax dependency, and some playing around, I finally got it to work as expected.
