Jquery block UI not working when used twice?

Question

I am using jquery block UI plugin, my requirement is to check if user is authorized user or not, here is my code

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

        $(document).ready(function () {
            $('#btnsubmit').click(function () {
                $.blockUI({ css: {
                    border: 'none',
                    padding: '15px',
                    backgroundColor: '#000',
                    '-webkit-border-radius': '10px',
                    '-moz-border-radius': '10px',
                    opacity: .5,
                    color: '#fff'
                }
                });
            });
        }); 

     function ajaxAuth() {
       //UserLogin.IServiceLogin.HelloWorldCC(OnSuccess, OnFailure);
         var usrname = document.getElementById('txtusrname').value;
         var pasd = document.getElementById('txtpassword').value;
         UserLogin.IServiceLogin.GetUseCred(usrname, pasd, onSuccess, onFailed);
     }

     function onSuccess(result) {
         setTimeout($.unblockUI, 0);
         var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(result);

         if (obj.name != "error" ) {
             document.getElementById('labusr').value = obj.name;
             document.getElementById('labpass').value = obj.passd;
             document.getElementById('labkey').value = obj.key;
             location.href = "DesignAPage.aspx";
         } else {
             $.blockUI({ message: $('#question'), css: { width: '350px'} });

//             $('#ok').click(function () {
//                 $.unblockUI();
//                 return false;
//             }); 
         }
     }

     function onFailed(result) {
         alert("failure");
     }

    </script>

so the problem is while i am using $.blockUI({ message: $('#question'), css: { width: '350px'} }); it just blocks the screen for a second and unblocks the screen.

Any help is greatly appreciated

try doing this in else block

else {
             $.unblockUI({
                 onUnblock: function () {
                     $.blockUI({ message: $('#question'), css: {
                         border: 'none',
                         padding: '15px',
                         backgroundColor: '#000',
                         '-webkit-border-radius': '10px',
                         '-moz-border-radius': '10px',
                         opacity: .5,
                         color: '#fff'
                     }
                     });
                     $('#ok').click(function () {
                         $.unblockUI();
                         return false;
                     }); 
                   }
             }); 
         }
