I tried to have a .click() on a <a> to find out it wont trigger every time I click, what it suppose to do is open a dialog.

That is not the only problem I would need to pass a value to my jquery to. I just cant figure this one out.

I need it to be a <a> because it's gone be in a dropdown menu. Do you got any suggestions?

this is the code I use so far

$(document).ready(function() {
        $('a').click(function() {
            var first = "<iframe style='width: 100%; height: 100%;' src='" + need to put value here + "'</iframe>'";
            $('.iframe').html(first);
            $('#dialog').dialog({ bgiframe: true, modal: true, height: 600, width: 1000 });
        });
    });

thanks guys
