I'm not able to send the whole html but i can show you the jquery stuff:
I am using this in a drupal CMS with jQuery 1.2.6 and jQuery UI 1.6.
Drupal includes the following css/js
<style type="text/css" media="all">@import
"/sites/default/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/themes/default/ui.all.css";</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/misc/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/sites/default/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/minified/ui.core.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/sites/default/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/minified/ui.dialog.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/sites/default/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/minified/ui.draggable.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#dialog").dialog({
autoOpen:false,
modal:true,
overlay: {backgroundColor: "#000",opacity: 0.5},
resizable:false,
buttons:{
"Delete": function() {window.location = "/home/"
+ somevar ;},
"Cancel": function() {$(this).dialog("close");}
}
});
$(".button").click(function(){
$("#ui-dialog-title-dialog").text("Attention");
var message = "You are about to do something: ";
$(".ui-dialog-content").text(message + $(this).attr("id"));
var somevar = $(this).attr("id");
$("#dialog").dialog("open");
});
});
</script>
Then somewhere at the end of the page I have:
<div id="dialog"></div>
Hope this helps.
