Help with closing Jquery dialog

[scottlafoy]

I have a jquery dialog that contains a few fields the close button and some images. When I press the close button or 'X' it works as expected. What I am trying to do is when the dialog is showing and the user clicks on one of the images it runs some javascript and in this javascript I also want to close the dialog.

I am trying:

$('#dialog-content').dialog('close');

from the function that is being called outside of the dialog. and the function does what it is supposed to but the dialog never closes.

The id of the div i am running as a dialog is 'dialog-content'.

Any suggestions?

try putting $('#dialog-content').dialog('close'); as your first line in your javascript.

That is it. I didn't think that would work as I have nothing called Dialog-content on the screen. Glad it seems to only close the front most dialog box. Thank you for your reply!
