I am learning how to use jQuery dialog. One link I found helpful is http://imperavi.com/redactor/examples/uidialog/. The code is listed below, but I don't know why it does not work.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test Dialog</title>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="javascript:void(null);" onclick="showDialog();">Open</a></p>
<div id="dialog-modal" title="Basic modal dialog" style="display: none;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showDialog()
{
$("#dialog-modal").dialog(
{
width: 600,
height: 400,
open: function(event, ui)
{
var textarea = $('<textarea style="height: 276px;">');
$(textarea).redactor({
focus: true,
autoresize: false,
initCallback: function()
{
this.set('<p>Lorem...</p>');
}
});
}
});
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
The dialog appears after adding jquery-ui and css, but "Lorem..." does not show.
One more thing... Is it possible to pass a string to "showDialog" such that it can show different content based on different link? For example, adding "Open 1" and "Open 2" to show different string?
I think, you forgot to add jquery UI.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test Dialog</title>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="path_to_jq_ui"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="javascript:void(null);" onclick="showDialog('Lorem ipsum dolor');">Open</a></p>
<div id="dialog-modal" title="Basic modal dialog" style="display: none;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showDialog(text)
{
$("#dialog-modal").html(text)
$("#dialog-modal").dialog(
{
width: 600,
height: 400,
open: function(event, ui)
{
var textarea = $('<textarea style="height: 276px;">');
$(textarea).redactor({
focus: true,
autoresize: false,
initCallback: function()
{
this.set('<p>Lorem...</p>');
}
});
}
});
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Here is working fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/bY3F4/3/
Download JqueryUI from here
Edit: Dynamic dialog content added to code
