I have a jqueryui dialog box which opens, and has a treeview control inside it. this control is rich with ajax calls, and thus makes use of live events on selectors.

However I noticed, if I close the dialog and reopen it, events start duplicating, and triplicating if closed/opened a third time.

So I decided I need to dispose of the live events when the dialog box is closed. In my dialog close function, I put the following:

1. $("body").toggle("destroytreeview");

and in my treeview initialising I bind to that:

1. $("body").bind("destroytreeview", function() {alert("destroying treeview");});

But nothing happens, the toggle is triggered, but its not caught.

What am I doing wrong?
