Triggering event on clicking OK button in Jquery Modal dialog box

I am trying to display a dialog box with just an OK button on response of an ajax call. When the user clicks OK, it should reload the page. But now page reload is immediately happening after the dialog box is popped up. It is not waiting for the user to click OK. FYI I am using Jquery Modal dialog box.
Simple browser alert() does the job for me, but I don't like the appearance of alert().
Any help is highly appreciated!
$.ajax({
url: "modules/mymod/save.php",
type: "POST",
data: $('#requestForm').serialize(),
statusCode: {404: function () {alert('page not found');}},
success: function (data) {
// alert(data);
modal({type: 'alert', title: 'Alert', text: data});
window.location.href = window.location.href;
}
});

Reference:
$.ajax({
url: "modules/mymod/save.php",
type: "POST",
data: $('#requestForm').serialize(),
statusCode: {404: function () {alert('page not found');}},
success: function (data) {
// alert(data);
modal({
type: 'alert',
title: 'Alert',
text: data,
buttons: [{
text: 'OK', //Button Text
val: 'ok', //Button Value
eKey: true, //Enter Keypress
addClass: 'btn-light-blue btn-square', //Button Classes
onClick: function() {
window.location.href = window.location.href;
}
}, ],
center: true, //Center Modal Box?
autoclose: false, //Auto Close Modal Box?
callback: null, //Callback Function after close Modal (ex: function(result){alert(result);})
onShow: function(r) {
console.log(r);
}, //After show Modal function
closeClick: true, //Close Modal on click near the box
closable: true, //If Modal is closable
theme: 'xenon', //Modal Custom Theme
animate: true, //Slide animation
background: 'rgba(0,0,0,0.35)', //Background Color, it can be null
zIndex: 1050, //z-index
buttonText: {
ok: 'OK',
yes: 'Yes',
cancel: 'Cancel'
},
template: '<div class="modal-box"><div class="modal-inner"><div class="modal-title"><a class="modal-close-btn"></a></div><div class="modal-text"></div><div class="modal-buttons"></div></div></div>',
_classes: {
box: '.modal-box',
boxInner: ".modal-inner",
title: '.modal-title',
content: '.modal-text',
buttons: '.modal-buttons',
closebtn: '.modal-close-btn'
}
});
}
});

Because your reload runs irrespectively of what is clicked. If you want to assign a callback function to the modal window:
jQuery UI dialog with boolean return - true or false
Also, there is no need to make location.href equal itself (or use the window object). location.reload() works just as well.

You can pass the dialog modal buttons attributes, each with a registered event, like this:
$.ajax({
url: "modules/mymod/save.php",
type: "POST",
data: $('#requestForm').serialize(),
statusCode: {404: function () {alert('page not found');}},
success: function (data) {
$("#dialog-confirm").dialog({
resizable: false,
height: 200,
modal: true,
buttons: {
Proceed: function() {
window.location.href = window.location.href;
},
Cancel: function() {
// Cancellation code here
}
}
});
}
});

Simple browser alert() does the job for me because alert() is an blocking call. If you omit the alert then your code is not bind with any event to check whether user clicked on a button or not, that's why the code block executes immediately and page reloads.
So bind the following code:
window.location.href = window.location.href;
inside some button click, to resolve the issue.

dont use window.location function in success.instead open the modal with ok button at success(how to do that, I think you know already) and assign some id to that button let say id="loction_btn".
then use just this
$('document').on('click','#location_btn',function(){
window.location.href = window.location.href;
});

Strange behavior of jquery.hotkeys

Although the subject of keyboard shortcuts has been treated here often, I cannot account for the following.
1) I put up a jQuery dialog
function statements ()
{
/* Initialization */
$.ajax
({
url: '/comeAndGo/MOVEMENTS/statements.php',
type: "GET",
dataType: 'html',
async: false,
success: function (data) { $('#mainContainer').html(data); },
error: function () { alert("Error"); }
});
$("#DLG_Statements").dialog(
{
title:"Statements",
height: 560, width: 600,
modal: true,
position: {my: "top", at: "top+60"},
buttons:
[
{
id: "bCancel",
text: "Dismiss",
click: function ()
{
$(this).dialog("close");
location.href = gPath + "homePage.php";
}
},
{
id: "bOK",
text: "OK",
click: function () {}
}
],
draggable: false,
closeOnEscape: false, // (5)
resizable: false
});
$(document).bind('keydown', 'Alt+j', function () { alert ('jquery.hotkeys'); });
}
2) The DLG_Statements is within a <div> inside a form which is part of statements.php. It includes several input elements such as radio buttons, drop-down menus, text input, a check-box.
MY PROBLEM
1) The jquery.hotkeys call does not respond when the cursor is positioned inside certain div's such as a text input field;
2) The jquery.hotkeys call responds unpredictably (it does/it does not) as a consequence of my clicking in different zones of the dialog;
3) The jquery.hotkeys call does not respond at all if I try and be more specific as to the jQuery wrapper, e.g. $("#DLG_Statements").bind (etc.)
What is it I am doing wrong?

Jquery delegate/live does not work

I have system that I'm modifying that uses jquery 1.5.1, which means .on doesn't exist.
I have a table and in this table I have multiple links listed in a row, and when the user clicks it opens a pop up window. I have the following code to create a pop up link.
<tr>
<td class="view_detail_label">
</td>
<td>
#Html.ActionLink(
training.Name.Name,
"AddSurvey",
new
{
employeeId = Model.Id,
trainingId = training.Id
},
new
{
#class = "addSurvey"
}
)
<div class="result" style="display:none;"></div>
</td>
</tr>
In the first function below I open a popup window and it works perfectly except when you close the popup you can not reopen it from the link again. To solve this I subscribed my event lively and used delegate and live function. But when tracking it from the console I cannot seen any output from the console statement : console.log($(this).next('.result'));.
$('.addSurvey').click(function () {
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
type: 'GET',
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function (result) {
$(this).next('.result').html(result).dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: 'Anket',
width: 500,
height: 'auto',
modal: true
}); //end of dialog
//console.log($(this).next('.result'));
} //enf of success function
}); //end of ajax call
return false;
});
$('a.addSurvey').live( 'click', function () {
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
type: 'GET',
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function (result) {
$(this).next('.result').html(result).dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: 'Anket',
width: 500,
height: 'auto',
modal: true
}); //end of dialog
console.log($(this).next('.result'));
} //enf of success function
}); //end of ajax call
}); //end of live
Why is this the case I used delegate method too and it does not work either. My delegate
function:
$(document).delegate(".addSurvey", "click", function () {
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
type: 'GET',
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function (result) {
$(this).next('.result').html(result).dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: 'Anket',
width: 500,
height: 'auto',
modal: true
}); //end of dialog
console.log($(this).next('.result'));
} //enf of success function
}); //end of ajax call
});//end of delegate
Thank you for your help.
*EDIT 1 After clesing the popup window when i click it it duplicates the responses somehow it is clicked as twice and when i refresh the page and click on it and then close the responses triples. What might cause this awkward situation? *
**EDIT2 I solved the above problem by using close: function () { console.log("onClose"); $('.surveyTable').load('Home/DetailsSurvey', {id:#Model.Id}); }. By this I reload the the div table and can click on any pop up.

If you are using live then you do not need the first call. Try preventDefault() rather than return false.
$('a.addSurvey').live( 'click', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
type: 'GET',
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function (result) {
$(this).next('.result').html(result).dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: 'Anket',
width: 500,
height: 'auto',
modal: true
}); //end of dialog
console.log($(this).next('.result'));
} //enf of success function
}); //end of ajax call
}); //end of live

Change to this:
$(".addSurvey").die().live("click", function (event) { event.stopPropagation();
.......rest of code.

Hello everyone I solved my problem as follows: on close action of the popup I reload the page from the server and re render it therefor now it works like a charm. Thanks everyone for your time and attention.
$('a.addSurvey').live('click', function (e) {
var $this = $(this);
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
type: 'GET',
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function (result) {
$(this).next('.result').html(result).dialog({
autoOpen: true,
title: 'Anket',
width: 500,
height: 'auto',
modal: true,
close: function () { console.log("onClose"); $('.surveyTable').load('Home/DetailsSurvey', {id:#Model.Id}); }
}); //end of dialog
console.log($(this).next('.result'));
}, //enf of success function
complete: function () {
console.log("Complete");
},
error: function () {
console.log("Error");
}
}); //end of ajax call
}); //end o

use .on instead of live. live is deprecated..
$('a.addSurvey').on( 'click', function () {
}

on() method is the new replacement for the bind(), live() and delegate() methods. Please use on().

jquery callback function not accessing global function

I have 2 functions declared makeAjaxCall and editOrderDetails
editOrderDetails executes makeAjaxCall to go and get a json object with the results of the call.
function editOrderDetails()
{
makeAjaxCall(
baseurl+'/orderoutbound/editorderdetails',
'orderID='+orderID+'&customerReference='+("#orderReference").val()+'&email='+$("#emailAddress").val(),
function(data){
if(data.success)
{
$("#editOrderDetailsErrorDiv").html(successDiv(data.generalMessage));
$(".customerReferenceSpan").html(data.order.customerReference);
$(".emailSpan").html(data.order.emailAddress);
}else{
$("#editOrderDetailsErrorDiv").html(errorDiv(data.generalMessage));
$("#emailAddressErrorDiv").html(data.errors.emailAddress);
}
},
function(data) {
$("#editOrderDetailsErrorDiv").html(errorDiv("There was an error.."));
}
);
}
now i'm using a jquery dialog to work with
$("#editOrderDetailsDialog").dialog('destroy').dialog({
autoOpen: false,
title: 'Edit Order Details',
closeOnEscape: true,
width: 500,
height: 300,
buttons:{
"Save": function() { editOrderDetails(); },
"Cancel": function() { $(this).dialog("close"); }
}
});
as my save call back function i'm trying to set my editOrderDetails function.
This however doesnt work and i'm guessing it has something to do with the scopeing.
i have tried declaring var editOrderDetails = function(){}; outside of any and all jquery doc ready functions
i have also tried window.editOrderDetails()
also instead of making a function wrapping the function call
i have tried putting the function into a variable var editOrderDetails = function(){};
then "save" : editOrderDetails
i'm at a loss. any ideas would be appreciated ?
PS yes the dialog works correctly. if i place an alert in the callback function it executes when i click save.
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var orderID = '<?= $this->orderID; ?>';

buttons:{
"Save": function() { editOrderDetails(); },
"Cancel": function() { $(this).dialog("close"); }
}

// END EDIT ORDER DETAILS DIALOG
});

You are missing a $ in the call to makeAjaxCall.
'orderID='+orderID+'&customerReference='+("#orderReference").val()+'&email='+$("#emailAddress").val(),
Becomes:
'orderID='+orderID+'&customerReference='+$("#orderReference").val()+'&email='+$("#emailAddress").val(),

This http://jsfiddle.net/jQRyq/8/ works fine for me, could you post a bit more of your code for context? Specifically where the editOrderDetails functions is defined.

Why does the Jquery dialog keep crashing on $(this)?

I am having a hell of a time trying to figure out why the code below crashes when the dialog is closed or cancelled. It errors on lines that use ($this) in the dialog button function.
For some reason if I hard code values into addTaskDialog.html(AddTaskForm); it works. I have even hardcoded the returned ajax form and it worked... This problem happens in all browsers.
$(function ()
{
/*
* Initializes AddTask Dialog (only needs to be done once!)
*/
var $dialog = $('<div></div>').dialog(
{
width: 580,
height: 410,
resizable: false,
modal: true,
autoOpen: false,
title: 'Basic Dialog',
buttons:
{
Cancel: function ()
{
$dialog.dialog('close');
},
'Create Task': function ()
{
}
},
close: function ()
{
$dialog.dialog('close');
}
});
/*
* Click handler for dialog
*/
$('#AddTask').click(function ()
{
/* Ajax request to load form into it */
$.ajax({
type: 'Get',
url: '/Planner/Planner/LoadAddTaskForm',
dataType: 'html',
success: function (AddTaskForm)
{
$dialog.html(AddTaskForm);
$dialog.dialog('open');
}
});
});
});
});

Ok I think I know what is going on. On your success callback you are referencing $(this) in AddTaskDialogOptions the problem is that the in this scope $(this) no longer refers to $("#AddTask") so you will need to set a variable to keep a reference to $(this) like so:
var that;
$('#AddTask').click(function ()
{
that = $(this);
/* Ajax request to load form into it */
$.ajax({
type: 'Get',
url: '/Planner/Planner/LoadAddTaskForm',
dataType: 'html',
success: function (AddTaskForm)
{
var addTaskDialog = $('<div></div>');
addTaskDialog.dialog(AddTaskDialogOptions);
addTaskDialog.html(AddTaskForm);
addTaskDialog.dialog('open');
}
});
});
var AddTaskDialogOptions = {
width: 580,
height: 410,
resizable: false,
modal: true,
autoOpen: false,
title: 'Basic Dialog',
buttons:
{
Cancel: function ()
{
that.dialog('close');
},
'Create Task': function ()
{
}
},
close: function ()
{
that.dialog('destroy').remove();
}
}

I figured it out. I'm not sure where I got this code, but it was causing the problems, so I took it out and it all works fine.
close: function ()
{
$dialog.dialog('close');
}
