Carlo,
jQuery /javascript is procedural so you just need to move things
around
like this
[code]
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#dialog").dialog({
autoOpen:false,
modal:true,
overlay: {backgroundColor: "#000",opacity: 0.5},
resizable:false,
buttons:{
"Delete": function() {window.location = "/home/" + $somevar
;},
"Cancel": function() {$(this).dialog("close");}
}
});
$(".button").click(function(){
$("#ui-dialog-title-dialog").text("Attention");
var message = "You are about to do something: ";
$(".ui-dialog-content").text($message + $(this).attr("id"));
var somevar = $(this).attr("id");
$("#dialog").dialog("open");
});
});
[/code]
I also noticed that your mixing php variables with javascript
variables i.e. javascript variables do not use "$" I'm not sure if
this causes any problems but I removed them
