[jQuery] Re: prompt before closing dialog

[Obi1]

this doesn't seem to work, i mean the prompt appears but only after
dialog is closed;
also tryed using the beforeclose event but the prompt doesn't even
show.

it doesn't work for me as i'm using jConfirm not javascript confirm
but it will have to do while i don't find a solution.

Thanks

The built in browser confirm is the only way you can block (with for the
user to respond) without blocking the UI. Any javascript confirm will have
to use a callback instead of a return false. In that case you can return
false to prevent the close, then use the result of the jConfirm callback to
decide whether or not to call .dialog('close') manually. But you'll use a
flag to prevent an infinite loop.
