jQuery UI dialog question (emergency)

jQuery UI dialog question (emergency)


I need a way to do this today! So any help would be appreciated.
I'm trying to do a confirm of a deletion on a list element, but I
don't know how to pass info into dialog, and the examples I can find
don't help much (they only pop up dialogs, they don't explain how to
do anything in the callbacks).
Here's what I have:
                $("#example").dialog({
                    autoOpen:false,
                    modal: true,
                    buttons: {
                        "No": function() {
                            alert("no");
                        },
                        "Yes": function() {
                            alert("yes");
                        }
                    }
                });
It gets called something like this:
                $("#portfolio ul li").click(function(e) {
                    $("#example").dialog("open");
                    //$(this).remove(); //I used to just remove it, now I want to
remove it only if confirmed by dialog
                })
Inside the "No" and "Yes" callbacks, how can I pass along the element
I want to remove into the dialog? Worst case I'll store it off
globally, but that seems really icky. Unfortunately, "this" and "$
(this)" don't seem to have anything obviously interesting.
How is this intended to be done in dialog()? Surely there must be some
idea for how to get information into the callbacks.
