Hello,

All i can say that you can position this by giving arrray like this
[top,left,bottom,right]

or like this

$(function() {
                $("#child1").dialog({position: [0,0]); // top left
        });

OR something like this

$('#dialog').dialog({
                                        autoOpen: false,
                                        title: '',
                                        position: [0,0],
                                        stack: false,
                                        modal: true,
                                        overlay: {},
                                        bgiframe: true,
                                        width: 600,
                                        height: 600
                                });

Rest if you can figure out the position of the container. :D

Hope this Helps...

Regards
