I'm using jquery-ui-1.8.2 to create a modal with form data that's populated using a $.load() initially and a $.post() subsequently.Essentially, I'm loading a form into the modal and then using one of the dialog buttons to post the form data to a server and get back results. The results come back fine and the content of the dialog get properly repopulated. The problem is that thereafter the dialog buttons don't seem to work and the only way I can even close the dialog is by using the "x" in the upper right corner. Before I pull my hair out trying to debug I just want to cover my bases and ask if this is expected behavior. Do the buttons "unbind" after being used once? How can I track the button's binding and when/how they are becoming unbound?
Is there a way to change the ?q= parameter name to something that was predefined by the JSON emmitter? For example, Lotus Domino expects the querystring to be of the form "?Startkey=... ". Alternately, I can put that query in the extraParams call, but how do I populate the value portion of extraParam? Is there a(n efficient) way for me to accomplish what the autocompleter is accomplishing internally with its lastWord($input.val()) call?
