jQuery dialog breaking after closing - I'm using dialog destroy
- by pedalpete
I've got a few demo videos I've been making as tutorials, and I'm using a link to open a dialog box and put the demo video in that box.
I use the same div to show other notes on the page when a user selects to view a complete note.
The code I use to show the notes is
jQuery('span.Notes').live('click', function(){
var note=jQuery(this).data('note');
jQuery('div#showNote').text(note);
jQuery('div#showNote').append('');
jQuery('div#showNote').dialog({
modal: true,
close: function(){
jQuery('div#showNote').dialog('destroy').empty();
}
});
});
The code I use for the demo videos is VERY similar.
jQuery('a.demoVid').click(function(){
var videoUrl=jQuery(this).attr('href');
jQuery('div#showNote').dialog({
modal: true,
height: 400,
width: 480,
close: function(){
jQuery('div#showNote').dialog('destroy').empty();
}
});
swfobject.embedSWF(videoUrl,'showNote','480','390','8.0.0');
return false;
});
I can click on as many notes as I want, and the dialog opens up and shows the note.
However, when I click the demoVid, the dialog opens, but then closing the dialog kills any other 'showNote' dialogs on the page, so I can't open any more notes, or demo videos.
