What are you calling useful data? If you are wanting some sort of ID then pass that into the dialog constructor and then parse it when you are wanting to actually delete the "whatever". Make the "ok" button a link to a "static" link that will take care of deleting the item (ie / item/delete/?id=123) but the actual button makes an ajax call to the same URL and if successful it closes the dialog.
Hope that helps/makes sense. Let me know if it doesn't and I'll try to help. On Feb 2, 6:09 pm, Bennie <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks! I can do that.
