I am having troubles getting this dialog to work with a cookie, help PLEASE!

[stefpretty]

Hey guys, just pasting my code here; i'm trying ot make it so the
dialog comes up and then when 'x' or close is clicked it creates a
cookie which expires in say 2 days and so the dialog wont launch once
the cookie is created.

I am using the cookie.jquery.js plugin, so heres the code!




        <script type="text/javascript">



        $(function() {
                $("#dialog")
                .dialog({
                        bgiframe: true,
                        modal: true,
                        resizable: false,
                        autoOpen: true,
                        width:200,
                        close: function() {
                                $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed', { expires: 2 })
                                },
                        buttons: {
                                Ok: function() {
                                        $(this).dialog('close')
                                        $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed', { expires: 2 });
                                }
                        }

                        });

                var doneDi = $.cookie('doneDi');

         if (doneDi == 'closed') {
       $("#dialog").dialog( 'disable') ;

         };
        });

        </script>


Cheers in advance, it's been driving me nuts!!

Maybe try making the dialog autoOpen: false and then only open it
after checking the cookie:


        <script type="text/javascript">

        $(function() {
                $("#dialog")
                .dialog({
                        bgiframe: true,
                        modal: true,
                        resizable: false,
                        autoOpen: false,
                        width:200,
                        close: function() {
                                $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed',
{ expires: 2 })
                                },
                        buttons: {
                                Ok: function() {
                                        $(this).dialog('close')
                                        $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed',
{ expires: 2 });
                                }
                        }

                        });

                var doneDi = $.cookie('doneDi');

         if (doneDi != 'closed') {
       $("#dialog").dialog( 'open') ;

         };
        });

        </script>

This sounds more likely an issue with the cookie plug-in.

Have you verified that you can use the cookies in a simpler scenario?

I know that Remy Sharp's http://jsbin.com/ does something much like
you're discussing, but it uses PPK's code rather than the cookie
plug-in.  You might look at that code, though.

ok here is what I found for whatever reason 'disable' event doesn't
seem to work so I used 'destroy' event
here is the jquery

        $(document).ready(function(){
                $("#dialog").dialog({
                bgiframe: true,
                modal: true,
                resizable: false,
                autoOpen: false,
                width:200,
                close: function() {
            $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed', { expires: 2 });
            },
                buttons: {
                    Ok: function() {
                        $.cookie('doneDi', 'closed', { expires: 2 });
                        $(this).dialog('close');
                    }
                }
            });
                $("#dbutton").click(function(){
                        if ($.cookie("doneDi") == "closed"){
                                $("#dialog").dialog('destroy');
                        }else{
                                $("#dialog").dialog('open');
                        }
                });
        });

let me know how this works out for you

You're loading jquery.cookie before jquery...

And I think your UI loading might be out of order too.

I never realised you had to watch the order, wow you do learn

Thank you soooo much! Now i can expand my knowledge and use it in
other applications!

swap these two lines around

<script src="scripts/jquery.cookie.js" type="text/javascript"></
script>
<script src="scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript"
charset="utf-8"></script>

they are out of order you may potentially have more of them out of
order

its probably a really bad idea to have  $(document).ready(function(){

inside of  $(document).ready(function(){

you can loose the second one

Ah, I think I found the issue... you are loading the cookie plugin
before jQuery.  It depends on jQuery and it's code is not being made
available to you.  Load it after jquery and then the code I gave you
earlier should do the trick.

Hth,

Dave

If you don't already have it, Firebug, a plug-in for Firefox is an
indispensable tool for finding errors like this.  Once we saw the
site, anyone with firebug was able to see the error icon on loading
your page and click it to realize that "$" was not defined when the
cookie plug-in was trying to use it.  From there it's just a quick
look at the source...

I'd also have to recommend Google Chrome.  If you right click and
Inspect Element you get much of the firebug capabilities.  And if you
then press Esc you'll see any errors on the page.  Quick and easy to
debug.

Or you could use IE and add an alert to every other line of code to
return key values :)

...couldn't resist :)
