You don't have to create the dialog until you want to. Are you talking opening the dialog for the first time, or is this a persistent dialog that you want to update?<br><br>RS<br><br><hr>Date: Mon, 1 Mar 2010 08:27:11 -0500<br>

<br>I assume that's the pattern from JQDialogFunctionalTest>>renderLightboxOn: ... but I'd like to do is to effectively defer the building of the scirpt: () code until the 'onClick: (html jQuery id: id) dialog open;' is triggered. I don't have enough context until then (domain state would determine the modal dialog component). <div>
<br></div><div>The jQuery lightbox example, as I understand it, sets up the lightbox component before the #onClick: script, since the script needs the component id. I'd like to create the lightbox component from <i>within </i>a #callback: ... just like the way SULightbox is used.</div>

<div>The way i do it is with a component, like BlahComponent which has something like:<br><br>renderContentOn: html<br><br>html div<br> script: (html jQuery dialog new) modal: true;<br> with: [...whatever...].<br><br>
Sorry, writing this from memory. Anyway, i sort of template like that. Just return that to your page with ajax or whatever.<br><br>RS<br><br><hr>Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 13:22:43 -0500<br>From: <a href="mailto:bobn@rogers.com">bobn@rogers.com</a><br>
