Hi,

I have a strange problem with JQuery modal dialog. I am using the
following code to open my dialog.

function OpenDialog()
{
    UpdateDIVForThisDialog();
    $("#mydialog").dialog({modal:true, autoOpen:false, title:Title,
width:800, height:380});
    $("#mydialog").dialog("open");
}

function UpdateDIVForThisDialog()
{
    var URL = "MyURL";
    var Parameters = "MyParameters";

    $.ajax({
      url: URL,
      async: false,
      data: Parameters,
      cache:false,
      type: "GET",
      dataType: "html",
      success: function(UserData)
      {
          document.getElementById("mydialog").innerHTML = UserData;
      }
     });
}

It's a straightforward piece of code that gets some data via an AJAX
call and updates the innerHTML of the div tag that is then used by the
OpenDialog function. The strange thing happening is that the div's
innerHTML seems to be cached when the dialog is opened. This leads to
the dialog showing the HTML of the earlier AJAX call. Please note that
the AJAX call does return me the new HTML because I displayed it using
an alert and I did see the new HTML. I also did an alert on
document.getElementById("mydialog").innerHTML and I see that the "new"
HTML content is set to the div tag. But, somehow, when the dialog is
opened, it shows me the old HTML. If it helps, the HTML is retrieved
from a MVC View and I tried setting the cache-control and all such
properties so there is no caching. But, I don't think thats the
problem because I do get the new HTML back from the server. It's the
dialog that somehow remembers the old div tag contents. If I refresh
the browser, I do see the correct contents in the dialog. The issue
happens in IE, Firefor and Chrome. So, I don't think it's browser
specific. I tried destroying the dialog before opening but it doesn't
work either. I am unable to find out the reason for this strange
behavior. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
